It’s a worldwide cult survival hit, and now fans down under are getting their own series — Alone Australia.
Ten Australian survivalists will be dropped in the remote wilds of Western Tasmania (lutruwita), completely isolated from the world and each other.
They will be stripped of modern possessions, contact and comforts to self-document their experience – with the last one standing winning $250,000.
When will Alone Australia premiere?
The ground-breaking documentary will premiere with a double episode on Wednesday, 29 March at 7.30pm and continue weekly from 8.30pm, exclusively on SBS and SBS On Demand.
“Alone Australia is raw, authentic, and truly unique,” SBS Head of Unscripted Joseph Maxwell said.
“At its core, it’s about people – what it is that challenges us, drives us, and motivates us as human beings. The relentless effects of nature, hunger, and solitude result in a very real examination of who we are as people.”
Who is in the Alone Australia cast?
Challenged by the merciless forces of nature, hunger, and perhaps the toughest challenge of all: loneliness, who will survive the longest?
