Take a journey to a truly remote island in the middle of the Atlantic. Discover the secluded world of Saint Helena, where ruminants of history remain alive alongside unique flora and fauna, and a population of only 4500. Set your sights on the RMS St. Helena, the British Royal Mail cargo ship that arrives every third week and connects the island to the rest of the world.
Join filmmaker Thomas Denzel and his team as they capture an intimate portrait of the island’s residents, many of whom are descendants of exiles sent there by the British crown, including the infamous French Emperor Napoleon. Experience the unique atmosphere of a place where isolation meets community, and the end of the world feels more like the center of a vibrant and resilient community. This is a story about love, loneliness, and the unbreakable human spirit, all set against the backdrop of one of the most secluded and intriguing islands in the world.
