A murder trial has upset the quiet community of San Piedro, and now this tranquil village has become the center of controversy. For Ishamael Chambers (Ethan Hawke), a local reporter, the trial strikes a deep emotional chord when he finds his ex-lover is linked to the case. As he investigates the killing, he uncovers some startling clues that lead him to a shocking discovery.

Prospera is usurped by her brother and sent off with her child on a ship. She ends up on an island; its a tabula rasa: no society so the mother figure becomes a father figure to Miranda. This leads to the power struggle and balance between Caliban and Prospera; a struggle not about brawn, but about intellect.

A two-hour event special of the cult classic. It is a reimagining of the campy horror feature which, 40 years after its release, continues to play in theaters around the world the longest theatrical distribution frame for any film in history.
