Seven friends on an Ozark Mountain adventure discover a primitive tribe of bigfoots. For the humans - which includes a promising anthropology student and a budding journalist - the revelation brings out their cutthroat lust for fame and fortune.

The friends must survive both the bigfoots and each other, knowing glory awaits the one who first makes it out of the Wild Woods alive to unveil this "Story of the Century."

But the weekend begins innocently, with Zane's 21st birthday road trip to a secluded mountain cabin with his sister Sierra and a few friends. On the way out of town, they meet Fay and Veronica, two young women unafraid to join five strangers for a trek into the unknown.

After discovering Bigfoot, the Ozarks become a primeval habitat where Homo sapiens loses its apex predator status. Yet the friends maintain a sizable advantage in wits, and the holiday turns into a vicious (and often hilarious) clash of civilizations.

An allegory of tribalism, the story examines a modern world where humans are increasingly unable - or perhaps unwilling - to escape our natural ancestral roots.
