Summary:The erotic arthouse thriller that caused a sensation at the Sundance, Toronto, and Venice Film Festivals, The Isle tells the tale of a beautiful woman who lives on an eerie, remote lake selling food to fisherman by day, and her body by night. When the woman becomes obsessed with a former police officer who is haunted by the murder of his unfaithful girlfriend, what develops is 'a perversely intriguing (and intriguingly perverse) love story.' (San Francisco Examiner).
