Makkah and Madinah, the holiest cities in Islam, cities which have become legendary in the Western world for their synonymity with Arabia and the Muslim faith. Seen as the centers of these religions, where generations of prophets passed in the service of God, they hold spiritual treasures which have remained untouched for thousands of years.
Here, in this holy land, situated inside of Saudi Arabia's deserts. 18 castaways will be dropped off and forced to fend for themselves. In an endless sea of rock and sand, dominated by mountains and gullies, they will attempt to keep themselves alive, while battling the elements, and each other. They will vote each other off systematically until only one person is left, a person who will claim a one million dollar prize.
In a kingdom dominated by archaic laws and spirituality, who can harness their own soul for success?
Who will rise to the occasion, like the leaders of empires long forgotten?
And who will meet their death by the sword, beheaded by a rushing stream that no one can stop?
