THE PREMISE

The film is loosely based on the theme park attraction of the same name. Set during the early 20th century, riverboat captain Frank Wolff is hired by a British scientist and her brother for a mission into the jungle to discover the Tree of Life. It is believed that the tree possesses powers that could greatly benefit modern medicine. The trio must face off against a competing German expedition, wild animals, and their environment in the race to get to the tree first.
