Based on the best-selling novel by Michael Morpurgo (War Horse) and adapted for screen by BAFTA Award nominee Frank Cottrell-Boyce (The Railway Man, Hilary and Jackie), Kensuke’s Kingdom features the epic adventure of Michael, a young boy shipwrecked on a remote island, who must adapt to life alone.
