SynopsisThe Swiss Family Robinson is about the Robinson family comprising
the father, mother and their four young sons who get shipwrecked
on their way from Switzerland to New Guinea. Before long, the
family is on shore and exploring a deserted island full of exotic
animals, charming locations and hidden dangers. Cut off from the
comforts and companionship of other humans, they use their
familiarity with natural history to find the resources and build the
tools to construct a canoe, weave cloth, irrigate a garden, tame
animals and construct dwellings. Soon they become masters of their
new environment, rising to its many challenges and using their
ingenuity to avail themselves of its abundant resources.
This adventurous tale of survival demonstrates how one can
overcome odds through sheer grit and determination; optimism;
boundless enthusiasm; perseverance; hard work and self-reliance.
