Remake dell’omonimo film del 1966. La vicenda di un cargo C-119 precipitato nel deserto del Gobi, Mongolia esterna, durante una tempesta di sabbia: i sopravvissuti, tutti operai/impiegati di una compagnia petrolifera, riescono a ripartire a bordo di un trabiccolo ricavato dai rottami dell’aereo. Il pilota, il capitano Towns, è un dipendente della compagnia mineraria Geodel, il cui lavoro consiste nel recarsi ai pozzi petroliferi più lontani e chiuderli quando la loro produttività è calata. Dopo aver, appunto, adempiuto ad uno dei suoi abituali compiti, il suo aereo cade sulla via del ritorno a Pechino. Riusciranno a sopravvivere al caldo, alla sabbia, ma, soprattutto, a ciascuno degli altri partecipanti a questo volo infernale?
