MR PIP (2013)
Starring Hugh Laurie, Kerry Fox and Eka Darville. Directed by Andrew Adamson.

Set on the island of Bougainville in Papua New Guinea, against a backdrop of civil war, Mr Watts is the only white man left on the island, who steps in to become the local schoolmaster, sharing the delights of Dickens with his young students.

Reading the trials and tribulations of Pip from Great Expectations, the story comes to mirror Dickens' epic, as one young girl, Matilda, survives the war to tell her own story.
