Washed ashore on a small island in the Pacific, shipwrecked Scottish sailor, Hamish MacKay, is quickly taken captive by local islander Adiben. On route back to Adiben’s village where an ill fate certainly awaits him, Hamish must figure out a way to escape his captor. At the same time, Adiben must make an impossible choice: to fulfil his responsibility to his people or to help a stranger lost at the far end of the sea.

​

This fictional narrative set in a historically accurate time (1842) marks a special milestone for the nation of Nauru - being the first ever Nauruan film made for the big screen!
