The Man on the Island

Film (Trailer) – 2020

PG
Parental Guidance
It's a typical evening on Rakino. There's no sound of traffic and there's no sound of the neighbours.
– Colin McLaren contemplates another blissful evening on his remote island
Colin's story — It's quite interesting.
– Advertising slogan for The Man on the Island
No one knows Rakino; there's no power, there's no services of any sort, there is New Zealand's only free phone box, which is quite good.
– Director Simon Mark-Brown on Rakino Island, in an interview with Seven Sharp, 8 September 2020
I have no desire to travel overseas again, I'm just not interested in spending my whole day roaming around looking for somewhere to eat, somewhere to crap and somewhere to sleep.
– Colin McLaren on being content to stay put on Rakino
No. The only time I feel nervous is when I bring a tree down, and when I meet girls.
– Colin McLaren is asked if he's nervous about the film, Seven Sharp, 8 September 2020
