The motion picture introduces Muir and his exploits all over the world, mainly focusing on his journey throughout the Australian continent, from Porte Augusta in South Australia to Burketown in Queensland.

The documentary has three executive producers: Philippa Bateman, Mitchell Block, and James Hersov of Shark Island Production Ltd, Australia.

[1] It was written by Muir and Ian Darling, edited by Sally Fryer and the music was supervised by Kim Green.

In 1988, he tried again to reach the summit without sherpa support and became the first man to climb Mount Everest unsupported.

Finally, in 2001, he was the first man to walk 1,650 km across the Australian continent from Port Augusta to Burketown (Huntsdale 2017).

Seraphine, his Jack Russell, accompanied him during his journey as he walked 2500 kilometres (1600 miles), unsupported (Harvey 2004).

During his trek, he had a cart attached to him to carry the equipment, which comprised fifty-five maps and a compass for direction.

The first natural obstacle that Muir crosses in the film is the salt lakes in South Australia.

The second half of this section focuses on Muir's lack of progress for a couple of days due to rain.

This part also follows some events, including the couple of days off that Muir took to rest in order to finish the walk.

The final section of the documentary shows the last couple of days where the trek crosses the North Rivers.

This section also shows the death of Seraphine, his Jack Russell, who ate a poison bait for dingoes (Muir & Darling 2003).

The documentary mainly comprises recorded sequences by Jon Muir himself using his camera during the crossing from South Australia to Queensland.
