One day, Michael discovers he is not alone when he is confronted by a mysterious Japanese man who has lived there secretly since World War Two, angry that Michael has arrived.

Mae bachgen ifanc a'i deulu yn cychwyn ar daith hwylio oes. Mae cyffro’n troi’n arswyd pan fydd storm ffyrnig yn ffrwydro a Michael a’i gi, Stella, yn cael eu hysgubo dros yr ochr. Maen nhw'n cael eu golchi i ynys anghysbell, yn ofnus ac yn brwydro i oroesi.

 

Un diwrnod, mae Michael yn darganfod nad yw ar ei ben ei hun pan fydd yn wynebu dyn dirgel o Japan sydd wedi byw yno'n gyfrinachol ers yr Ail Ryfel Byd, yn flin bod Michael wedi cyrraedd. Fodd bynnag, wrth i oresgynwyr peryglus fygwth eu hynys baradwys fregus, mae Michael a’r hen ddyn, Kensuke, yn ymuno i achub eu byd cyfrinachol.
