Omschrijving

Leif O'Connor is a young man who was born and raised in the Central Highlands of Tasmania. The passenger plane in which he was travelling has crashed in the snow-laden Central highlands in the dead of winter.
He leaves the passengers knowing that they will soon be rescued. He is unconcerned at their dilemma because each of them in their own particular way treated him badly at the airport. He climbs to a ridge to find his bearings. He has the knowledge and experience to survive in this frozen land. Fully equipped, he has no qualms about walking out on his own.
Leif notices dark and ominous clouds heading toward him. There was a storm coming. He realizes that their will be no rescue for those in the plane, no hope for them, they will not survive the storm and will never be found once fresh snow covers the plane. He has no choice but to return and help them.
Battling his own personal demons, he interacts with the surviving passengers and as he does, we go back and learn of his life, learn of his reason for being what he was, a young man with no feelings.
His anger, his contempt for his fellow passengers, who each in their own way caused him some angst is gradually eroded away in the confines of the crashed plane as they are all forced to confront their own shortcomings and differences. Some of them swallow their pride and apologise, some find it hard to face him, to acknowledge that without him they will perish.
