As World War II looms in Northern Australia, the threat of Japanese invasion prompts widespread evacuations and a devastating scorched earth strategy. Faced with the dilemma of slaughtering their cattle, a diverse band of locals chooses an audacious plan instead: to herd their livestock overland across the continent.

The perilous trek tests their resolve and unity in the face of looming danger.
