On a British convict ship bound for New South Wales, six prisoners, including a young boy and his sister, Polly, embark on a journey that will change their lives forever. As they face harsh labor and brutal treatment, a young boy named Toby forms an unlikely bond with a baby koala, Yo-Yo, after its mother is killed. When a fellow convict is brutally beaten to death, Toby sets out to rescue his friend Big George, who is wrongly imprisoned, and enlists the help of a mysterious Aboriginee boy with a special gift. Their daring rescue attempt will require a heroic sacrifice that will test their courage and loyalty.
