Turistas
is
a
terrific
thriller
story,
mainly
concentrating
on
a
group
of
young
adventurous
travellers.
They
meet
with
a
terrifible
accident
which
results
in
their
being
wrecked
on
a
remote
deserted
beach
in
South
America
without
any
signs
of
habitation.
They
move
around
the
beach
slowly,
keenly,
discovering
the
places
and
things
around
the
beaches
and
the
nearby
Brazilian
jungle
which
contain
great
secrets.
The
film
is
taken
in
Brazil,
in
sandy
beaches,
jungles
and
also
open
spaces.
For
Alex
(Josh
Duhamel),
his
sister
Bea
(Olivia
Wilde)
and
Bea's
best
friend
Amy
(Beau
Garrett),
this
is
the
first
time
they
are
going
abroad;
they
have
come
to
Brazil
just
for
fun
without
any
purpose.
They
enjoy
the
adventures
and
also
avail
the
pleasures
of
a
jaunt
to
an
exotic
location,
a
tropical
paradise.
When
the
bus
travels
up
the
mountain
road,
they
meet
the
beautiful
Pru
(Melissa
George).
After
the
incident
of
the
bus
crash,
Alex,
Bea
and
their
band
of
travelling
companions
are
left
in
the
open
wilderness;
they
look
for
a
cabana
bar
on
a
nearby
beach
and
for
a
place
where
they
can
catch
the
next
bus.
This
changes
their
fates
forever.
The
discovery
of
the
beautiful
beach
gives
them
a
chance
to
enjoy
the
sun
during
the
day,
drink
and
dance
during
the
afternoon
and
night,
they
spend
the
time
in
dancing
with
locals
and
enjoying
exotic
liquors.
But
this
lasts
for
only
one
night.
From
the
next
morning,
they
all
face
many
unspoken
and
hidden
dangers
against
which
they
can
hope
to
win
only
by
using
their
team
spirit,
wits
and
strengths.
They
travel
with
the
Brazilians,
meet
and
overcome
many
dangers;
they
move
across
and
escape
from
the
locals
and
move
to
the
jungle.
Here,
they
fight
against
the
human
trappers
and
struggle
to
save
their
very
lives.
The
unique
thing
to
be
noted
about
this
movie
is
that
this
is
the
first
American
film
which
was
shot
fully
in
Brazil.
