About Yellowjackets

Yellowjackets follows an elite girls' soccer team surviving a plane crash in the Canadian wilderness. The narrative unfolds across two timelines: the teenage survivors' struggle for survival and the adult women's grappling with the trauma decades later. While fictional, the series draws inspiration from real events, notably the 1972 Andes Flight 571 disaster (similarly depicted in Netflix's Oscar-nominated "Society of the Snow").
