Here is a keen study of isolation, displacement and the way in which small communities are vulnerable to exploitation. It takes place on a nameless island, loosely based on Tristan da Cunha – a British Overseas Territory comprised of volcanic islands in the South Atlantic Ocean.
Mill (Jenna Russell) and Bill (Cyril Nri) live small, austere yet contented lives until their nephew, Francis (Archie Madekwe), returns to the island filled with stories about the big world outside and his excited plans to connect this island to it.
