Storyline
Storyline: In a dystopian future, fifty teenage boys join a brutal competition called The Long Walk; a walking marathon in which the last one alive is the winner. The walkers get three warnings if they stop along the Walk before they're shot by the supervising soldiers. For some, death comes naturally. Young RAYMOND GARRATY starts the walk with a group of other boys who become his friends until their numbers drop and they must look out for themselves.
