Every rating
A successful but disillusioned American businessman abandons his stressful life and career to seek a life of idle pleasure on a beautiful South Seas island. He becomes the ultimate "lotus eater," living for day-to-day enjoyment without care for the future or his past responsibilities. This paradise is threatened when his past catches up to him, forcing him to confront the consequences of his abandonment and the emptiness of a life without purpose.
