description: On the surface, John may be a conventional businessman, but inwardly he is consumed by a dream of Utopia. And then the dream becomes reality. Transported to a remote tropical island, with a simple but perfectly evolved society, basking in the love of a beautiful girl, John finds all his old hang-ups slipping away, leaving a vision of a golden life. But all too soon the magical idyll comes under threat. With the sudden explosion of the island's volcano and the violent death of a friend, it looks as if John's new-found paradise will be lost to him forever...
