Before The Stand and The Hunger Games, before Battle Royale and Yellowjackets, there was Lord of the Flies.
A plane crashes on a desert island. The only survivors, a group of schoolboys. By day, they explore the dazzling beaches. By night, they are haunted by nightmares of a primitive beast and of what they’ve lost.
‘There aren’t any grown-ups anywhere.’
Orphaned by society, they must forge their own; but it isn’t long before the group is split, and their innocent games take a dangerous turn.
