Chuck Noland is a FedEx systems engineer whose personal and professional life are ruled by the clock. His fast-paced career takes him, often at a moment’s notice, to far-flung locales—and away from his girlfriend Kelly.

Stripped of the conveniences of everyday life, he first must meet the basic needs of survival including water, food and shelter. Chuck, the consummate problem solver, eventually figures out how to sustain himself physically. Chuck begins his true journey, however, as he faces the emotional ordeal of isolation.
After four years, Chuck returns to civilization as a profoundly changed man. He realizes that losing everything he ever had and thought important was the best thing that could ever have happened to him.
