What Season 1 of Yellowjackets

In 1996, the players of a girls' soccer team from a New Jersey high school travel to Seattle to compete in a national tournament. Their plane crashes in the wilderness over Canada, far from any settlement. The survivors must endure nineteen months there with one goal: staying alive. Living together becomes increasingly tense. The series alternates between that present-day ordeal in the forest and a timeline twenty-five years later, where the same women try to rebuild their lives. Misty, Shauna, Taissa and Natalie are at the center of both eras.
