Dicky and Emmeline Lestrange, stranded on a remote island with a beautiful lagoon. Growing up together since they were children, they eventually fall in love. Sex and birth are as mysterious to them as death, but they manage to copulate instinctively and conceive a child.

Naming the boy Hannah, the Lestranges live in familial bliss until they are unexpectedly expelled from their tropical Eden.
