The true story of Christopher McCandless, a young man who after graduating college in 1991, gave away his savings of $25,000 to charity, left behind all his belongings and possessions and hitchhiked to Alaska to explore its wilderness. Unencumbered by money and belongings, he would be free to explore all that nature has to offer, and he did so until his body was discovered four months later by a group of hunters inside a rusting bus.

There was a note taped to the door….

Into the Wild examines several theories of how Chris died. Was it starvation? Did he consume a poisonous plants or seeds? Will Chris’ diary offer any insights? 

Like a jigsaw - the pieces will begin to fit together - but one question remains - why?
