Film Synopsis

Two young men, Jeremy and Bild, find themselves in a strange land which could be a million miles from the urban jungle they are used to.  Here they come across a community of a few dozen people who are living in perfect harmony with nature.   Bild is here to find his long-lost mother, whom he believes to have founded this happy community.  Things are not quite what they seem, however, even in paradise...
