At a very tumultuous time at the Walt Disney Company, one man tries to save their failing TV network by pitching a show about people surviving a plane crash on a deserted island.
With a new creative team the island concept begins to take shape at a breakneck pace - but not without concerns by the Disney leadership.
After just a few weeks of pre-production, the pilot is being filmed with a sea change behind the scenes on the horizon.
With a proper movie in their hands and many ideas for a potential series the team behind the pilot faces an uncertain future.
Having overcome massive hurdles along the way the island team is closing in on the finish line - with much more work ahead of them and an issue to settle.
The taxing production finally leaves its mark, but not without a silver lining.
