It's morning as five people- former flatmates and old friends - wake up in a remote tramping hut. Some of them are feeling the effects of the walk to the hut while others are feeling the effects of previous night's party.This weekend is a celebration of their friendship - it will be the last time they will go out on their annual 'tradition' of an adventure trip. Belinda is still struggling with the recent suicide of her sister, Emily. Consoling her is her fiance, Rajit - the butt of old flat jokes, and eager to move on. The feisty yet insecure Zara, who has accepted a job overseas but has some unfinished business with one of her friends. Chris, the slacker - a lawyer, of all things, for whom this trip holds a cruel finality. And Henry - 'old mother Hen' - who is still young at heart and a ladies man to the core , tries to come to terms with girlfriend - Emily's death. Old behaviours and dynamics - and rivalries - surface. Emily's death has unexpectedly drawn Belinda and Henry together - a development neither Zara nor Rajit can handle. Rajit, already threatened by Belinda and Henry's 'history', struggles with his jealousy. And Chris, fighting demons of his own, begins to remember little things about Emily's final hours. Sometimes your friends aren't the people you think they are.
