In 1822 Alexander Pearce (Oscar Redding ) and seven other convicts escape from the savage Macquarie Harbour penal settlement in Tasmania, the place reserved for the worst offenders. They walk into the even harsher environment of the wild bush of Van Diemen's Land. As nature's cupboard is empty of sustenance for humans, the men become desperate. There is only one source of nourishment.
