In 1882 a French naval supply ship was taken by a band
of convicts from one of their South Pacific penal colonies
and sailed away to freedom. The 28 men aboard the
vessel vanished into the rainforests in tropical
north Queensland.
Today most of these men live in the quiet little town
of Ville Perdu, in the heart of the state close to desert country.
Some live elsewhere, in other places.
They have visitors from their old home village in France.
They continue to exist.
It is unclear why these events are possible,
just that they are.
They have the gift of time.
