They are given only 10 items of their choosing, from a limited selection, to help them get by for as long as possible. With no interaction between participants and no camera crews, they confront the merciless forces of nature, forbidding environments, hunger, wild predators and perhaps the biggest challenge of all: their own loneliness. In the end, one winner will stand ALONE and win.
