A scrappy underdog adventure about two dreamers chasing a fortune in the jungle, balancing genuine stakes with an optimistic, energetic tone.

Kenny Wells, a modern-day prospector, hustler, and dreamer, is desperate for a lucky break. Left with few options, Wells teams up with an equally luckless geologist to execute a grandiose, last-ditch effort: to find gold deep in the uncharted jungle of Indonesia.
