Richard is a rootless twenty-something American looking for new
experiences in far away places. In Thailand, he flees from the
tourists and takes refuge in an out-of-the-way hotel where he strikes
up an acquaintance with a French couple, Françoise and
Etienne. One evening, a man named Daffy tells Richard about a
secret island with a paradisiacal beach where he once lived among a
community of free spirits. The next day, Richard comes across
Daffy's corpse and a map of the island. Intrigued, he persuades
Françoise and Etienne to accompany him to the mysterious
island...
