text: Emma and Dean are two high - school students on a class trip to Trinidad to build a school for less fortunate children and to explore the island . The two have little in common . During a boat party , Emma falls overboard when the party is interrupted by a police raid and Dean jumps into the water to save her . Dean then severs the rope attaching the dinghy to the party boat as he does not want to get into any more trouble than he already has . The pair drifts to a deserted island , avoiding dangerous rocks by using the one paddle in the dinghy . Back home , their parents have been alerted that the pair was last seen on the party boat and the parents desperately search for them . Wondering if they will ever be rescued , Emma and Dean must rely on each other to survive . Together they learn to build a fire , fish and find food .
