Private Island (2013) ((full)) Instant
In the landscape of early 2010s British independent cinema, Private Island emerges not as a blockbuster, but as a quiet, character-driven comedy that probes the ironies of modern solitude and the elusive promise of escape. Directed by Tinge Krishnan and written by the film’s star, Fraser Ayres, this 2013 feature offers a surprisingly poignant look at a man who buys his way to isolation, only to find he cannot outrun himself.
