White Island

Synopsis

A comic thriller with dark undertones and a big heart, set on the island of Ibiza.
When Connor's best friend becomes innocently embroiled in the plans of a gang in Ibiza, Connor is the only one who can help him, but it means returning to the island where he worked a few years earlier, and has avoided since the tragic death of another friend.
Once back, Connor is reunited with Leo, his former boss and mentor. A 60 year old American draft dodger turned hippy. Only thing is, Leo is trying to kill himself. Amongst the mayhem of exploding villas, underwater drops and the attractions of a gorgeous diving instructor, Connor and Leo's journeys teach them some valuable life lessons. For Leo it is that every day is precious. For Connor, that his life in London is not as perfect as it seems, and that if he deals with his past, there is only one place he'll ever be truly happy...Ibiza. All he has to do is stay alive long enough to enjoy it.
