Beast From The Air

After their plane crashed onto a deserted island, the surviving schoolboys have strived to build shelters, maintain a signal fire and hunt for food.

Until now, they believed the island was uninhabited. But when the twins spy a mysterious shape on the mountaintop, rumours of a beast spread amongst the group. With nowhere to hide, the boys have no other option than to hunt it.

William Golding's classic fable dramatised by Judith Adams.
