Marooned Awakening

Guernsey was the location for all of the filming for this atmospheric thriller and the camera captures it beautifully. There are so many shots of the island, both by itself and as a backdrop to the actors, that the island itself becomes a character in the film as was, no doubt, intended as part of the narrative.

The storytellers have given this film an easy and gentle pace which allows the viewer to appreciate the scenes fully as they unfold against the beautiful landscape which is then enhanced by the use of black and white during some of the scenes to contrast with the full colour of other shots.
