Shearwaters
Ruth's idyllic island life is threatened by the unexpected arrival of someone from her past. As danger intensifies, distressing memories surface and Ruth is forced to take action.
Alison White's intense psychological thriller set over twenty four hours on a remote island wildlife reserve.
The island reserve, home to hundreds of thousands of breeding Manx shearwater birds that are hunted at night-time by predatory black-backed gulls, is managed by warden Wilf who lives there with his partner Ruth and young daughter Lily. Ruth arrived on the island three years previously, escaping from traumatic events in her past. But Ruth holds a secret and unbeknown to her, someone is coming, someone who has the power to rip her new life apart.
As the threat and danger intensifies, distressing memories surface and Ruth is forced to take drastic action to protect herself and the people she loves.
The drama features field recordings made on Skomer Island, including the night-time arrival of Manx shearwaters, and uses 3D binaural audio; please listen on headphones for a more immersive experience.
