In 1977, Robyn Davidson moves to Alice Springs planning to start a cross country trip of 2,700 kilometres (1,700 miles) crossing the Australian deserts to the Indian Ocean with her dog, Diggity, and four dromedary camels.
For a while, Robyn works for farmers, learning the way to train camels in exchange for board and camels.
