Title: n/a
Synopsis:
Hearing-impaired boy scout Simon and his unwilling older brother Tyler go camping in the Blue Mountains National Park for Simon’s Fifteenth birthday. When Tyler takes a nasty fall and is left blinded, Simon must battle overgrown trails, dangerous wildlife and steep canyons in order to lead them back to the rangers station. Exhausted and afraid, Simon draws strength from his brother’s encouraging words. Overcoming his fears and reaching the rangers station, Simon and Tyler are reunited with their loved ones, happy and proud of what they’ve achieved together on this treacherous journey.
I like the premise and I think your logline is pretty solid.

“When his older brother is blinded by a blow to the head while camping in the Blue Mountains, a hearing-impaired boy scout must guide his brother through dense forest, and dangerous animals, all with bad weather on the way.”

You should check out a 70s movie called “Walkabout.” It has a similar premise, however, your story ups the stakes with the head injury and the lead character also being hearing impaired.
Great Idea, good luck with this!
