Plot
Fatin Jadmani, Dot Campbell, Martha Blackburn, Rachel Reid,
Shelby Goodkind, Nora Reid, Toni Shalifoe, and Leah Rilke are among a group of
teenage girls from various backgrounds on an aeroplane when it crashes into the
ocean while en route to Hawaii for the Dawn of Eve programme, a young women's
empowerment retreat. They survive the crash but are stranded on a deserted
island.
The girls are unaware that they are subjects of a social
experiment as they work to survive as castaways and learn about each other; the
plane crash was staged and their stranding was orchestrated by Gretchen Klein,
the Dawn of Eve program's head. The girls' adventures on the island are
intercut with flashbacks to their lives before the crash and flashforwards to
an underground bunker where two men posing as FBI agents, Daniel Faber and Dean
Young, interview the survivors after their alleged rescue.
The second season introduces a group of adolescent boys
(Kirin O'Conner, Rafael Garcia, Josh Herbert, Seth Novak, Ivan Taylor, Henry Tanaka,
Bo Leonard, and Scotty Simms) who are caught up in Klein's second orchestrated
crash as part of the Twilight of Adam programme. The boys' stories emerge as
they flash between their past, lives on the island, and questioning by Faber
and Young, while the girls (still held in the bunker) begin to learn the truth
about their situation and attempt to contact the boys.
Casting
As series regulars, Mia Healey, Helena Howard, Reign
Edwards, and Shannon Berry were cast.
The main cast was joined by Rachel Griffiths, David

James.
