A man lives out his days in a drug-induced state, prisoner to a parasitical guard, on a disturbing desert island of his own making, when he is awoken by the deep traumas of his past that he can no longer suppress.

Compelled by the fentanyl crisis in Vancouver, this short film twists the tropes of a desert island survival story to take David, a person lost in his addiction, on a fantastical journey into the dark side of his psyche to find the last glimmer of hope.
