Reminds me of a movie that might resonate with you in your current situation, Paul Mazursky's Tempest.
John Cassavetes plays a Prospero-like character who chucks his corrupt, high-pressure New York job and takes his daughter Miranda (Molly Ringwald's debut) and escapes to a remote Greek island. There he meets the horny tour-guide/man Friday Caliban (a hilarious Raul Julia) and a lounge singer who is attracted to Cassavettes and the thought of escaping civilization (Susan Sarandon as the de facto Ariel).
It's not perfect, at times you wonder if Mazursky had a point to it at all, but the actors and the locales make it very watchable. I might be able to hook you up if you haven't seen it and are interested...
