    An absolute gem of a film.
    Inspiring, entertaining and funny as heck; "Rose Island" showcases an anarchistic story that more people should know about.

    In this comedy based on a true story, an engineer builds his own island off the Italian coast and declares it a nation, drawing the world's attention in the 1960s.

    Sharply written with a strong message at hand, "Rose Island" exceeded my expectations and is one of the better films now streaming on Netflix. Solid performances from the cast and a soundtrack that is so killer, you'll be grooving while sitting on your couch. I do believe that more people need to know this story, especially that it's the only story of its kind EVER. Heartfelt, witty and smart this is a great film.
