Paradise or Bust - Episode 3

Documentary. In January 2006, Ben and Mark, who are both 26, decided to set up their own eco-community. They set up a website to persuade volunteers to come and live on a Fijian island. Three months in, all their eco dreams are rocked by a full-blown coup d’etat in Fiji. International governments warn against travel to Fiji and tourism all but dries up. Ben is forced to leave his brother Dan in charge of the Island and head home to England to try to raise funds and save the business. (R)
