Isolation (2015) is a survival thriller that turns a dream vacation into a fight for life. The film follows a couple seeking peace and escape on a remote island in the Bahamas, where isolation quickly becomes a dangerous liability.
What begins as a relaxing getaway soon shifts in tone when they realize they are not alone. Modern-day pirates descend on the island, targeting not only their possessions but their identities and lives, transforming paradise into a relentless hunting ground.
The film relies heavily on atmosphere and tension. The remote setting amplifies fear and vulnerability, as there is no easy escape and no one to turn to for help. Each decision the couple makes carries immediate and potentially fatal consequences.
Isolation also explores themes of trust, survival, and the fragility of safety. Stripped of comfort and control, the characters are forced to confront how far they are willing to go to protect themselves and each other.
