Kristoffer Nyholm’s The Vanishing is an intense, bleak and surprisingly engaging thriller which sees Gerard Butler back to his Scottish roots in a story based on real life events. Written by Joe Bone and Celyn Jones and partly produced by Butler himself, the film which also stars Peter Mullan and Connor Swindells centres around the infamous disappearance of the Flannan Isle keepers in the early 1900s and the mystery which remains unresolved to this day.
Arriving on an isolated Island off the Scottish coast, seasoned lighthouse keepers James Ducat (Butler) and Thomas Marshall (Mullan) are accompanied by eager young recruit Donald McArthurfor (Swindells ). Soon the three fall into a routine of getting things done despite being completely out of touch with the mainland. To make matters worse, the only radio on the premises has been broken for some time, making it impossible to communicate with anyone but each other.
