'Deadly radiation is released following an accident at the WALDO nuclear waste facility in central Australia. Heinrich (Ross Thompson), a scientist at the facility who has been exposed to a fatal dose of contaminated water, escapes into the countryside where he meets holidaying couple Larry (Steve Bisley), a car mechanic, and his wife Carmel (Arna-Maria Winchester), a nurse.

'Given orders to kill Heinrich and anyone he might have spoken to, WALDO security agents Gray (Ralph Cotterill) and Oates (Patrick Ward) close in on Heinrich, Larry and Carmel. Heinrich makes contact with Eagle (Hugh Keays-Byrne), an anti-nuclear campaigner who arrives on the scene determined to save Larry and Carmel and expose the cover-up by WALDO.'
