The Mosquito Coast (1986). A pragmatic father of four kids is an independent inventor and engineer working on a farm. Disgruntled by the Cold War and greed of humanity in general he decides to talk to some African immigrants who harvest crops for a living, convincing them to flee the United States with him and his family to travel to a remote jungle in order to contribute building a new society together. Along their exciting journey they face hardship while building a new society from scratch. They also face outsiders who wish to interfere, and even threaten, their remote new-found way of life.
