Bosko, the captain of a ship, is shipwrecked on a desolate island, where he is awoken by the monkeys and birds inhabiting the island. Once gaining consciousness, he is pursued by a lion and wanders into a native village, which subsequently leads to him being cornered by the inhabitants of the village.
