There is no ticket out
A group of journalists used to covering international war zones travel to a remote island on a no holds barred survival training course which swiftly gets out of hand under the tuition of two unhinged ex-military types. Running in the background, we hear news of impending nuclear war, which further affects the behaviour of the crazy 'tutors'.
