The Island Wakes is inspired by an ancient Micronesian legend and my own real-life experience of surviving on a haunted, uninhabited desert island in Micronesia in 1989.

​

The Island Wakes is a spooky tale, set in 1989, in which two teenagers maroon themselves on an uninhabited, tropical island to make a film for university. They are unaware that the island is guarded by an ancient spirit who will protect her land and sea at all costs.

The trees will move, the seas will rise. Will Laura and Charlie survive?

​

​The themes are: Nature bites back and personal growth​

Folk horror/cli-fi
