Jeff is an entrepreneur with an unrelenting drive to succeed. His dream is to revolutionize the cell phone industry with his mobile phone that works everywhere in the world. His ambitions take over his life, as his neglected girlfriend Gail would attest to. She wants to get married and raise a family, but commitment to a long-term relationship, and particularly commitment to children, is not something Jeff is looking for. Jeff's biggest goal right now is to find an investor to fund his cell phone project. And he did. However while celebrating his success, through an unfortunate boating accident, Jeff becomes marooned on an island with two young children. Ironically, Jeff's cell phone does not work on the island. With neither Jeff nor the children understanding each other, this adventure/comedy reveals the most unexpected changes life can throw at you as the three castaways search for food, confront their fears and uncover a side of life that was not known to previously exist.
