Two hapless travel agents offer an even more radical break from routine in The Castaways of Turtle Island: in the Caribbean, they test-run a new “Robinson Crusoe” experience that imagines travellers left to their own devices on a desert island. Turning his camera to characters ungoverned by the rigid everyday, Jacques Rozier looks on with mischievous glee and sincere tenderness at his holidaymakers’ beautiful comedy of serendipity, their impulsive whims revealing long-simmering longings.
