Islander is a 2006 American drama film directed by Ian McCrudden and starring Thomas Hildreth, Amy Jo Johnson, Mark Kiely, Larry Pine, James Parks, Ron Canada, Judy Prescott and Philip Baker Hall.[1]
Maine lobsterman Eben Cole discharges his weapon in the direction of another fishing vessel. As a result, a deckhand on the other vessel is thrown overboard and drowns. Cole goes to prison and loses his family, friends and stature in his island fishing community. He returns to the island an outcast but determined to win back the way of life he fought so hard to protect. Set against the stunning backdrop of the Maine coast, Islander captures the grit and integrity of this hard working community and celebrates man's unerring need for redemption.
