A team of teenagers is stranded in the wilderness after a plane crash, forms its own order, and descends into ritual and violence, which is Golding's premise with a girls' soccer team in place of his schoolboys. Its creators, Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson, have named Lord of the Flies among its starting points. MEDIUM: the series splits its time between the wilderness and the survivors' adult lives twenty-five years on, which is its own.
