What is Yellowjackets About?
Yellowjackets follows an elite all-girls high school soccer team whose plane crashes in the remote Canadian wilderness. The series unfolds across two timelines: the teens' desperate struggle for survival, and their lives 25 years later as they grapple with the trauma of their shared experience. While fictional, the show draws inspiration from real-life events, particularly the 1972 Andes flight disaster (a story depicted in Netflix's Oscar-nominated film, Society of the Snow).
