The most beautifully shot, heart warming and heartbreaking documentary which brought much laughter and many tears to a captivated audience at a local screening.
The film adopted a refreshing, no frills approach, allowing each person to tell their own story in their own time.
The local characters were immediately endearing to the viewer and we were offered a privileged insight into how and why they have chosen, or found themselves living the lifestyle they do.
A simpler life is not without the harsh realities - for all have to navigate the predictable Devon weather. Others found the practicalities and legalities are a constant threat and for some, the raw and palpable loneliness was enough to bring many viewers to tears.
Refreshing, real, uplifting, funny and moving, a truly remarkable piece of cinema.
