NOTES
Title from title frames
Using 16mm cameras, artist Ben Rivers documents the solitary existence of Jake, a man who lives in isolation in the middle of a remote forest. The film follows his unconventional life, capturing moments of profound beauty. Jake is seen in all seasons, surviving frugally, passing the time with strange projects, living the radical dream he had as a younger man, a dream he spent two years working at sea to realize. FIPRESCI Prize winner at the **Venice Film Festival**. Official selection at the **BFI London Film Festival** and the **New York Film Festival**. "*Quietly enigmatic, valuable work.*" - Peter Bradshaw, **Guardian**
