Her er ingen dialog, ingen farver og et tempo, der ville gøre en snegl utålmodig. Her er kun ét menneske.

Frequently asked questions

What is Two Years at Sea about? Toggle content

Two Years at Sea is a documentary film that follows the unconventional life of Jake, a bearded Scottish hermit who lives in isolation in the middle of a remote forest. The film captures moments of profound beauty and intimacy, showing Jake surviving frugally and living his radical dream. With a tremendous sense of purpose, Jake goes about his daily routines with eccentricity and grace, creating a connection with the viewer despite his outsider lifestyle. Shot using old 16mm cameras, the film extends the director's relationship with Jake, first encountered in his short film THIS IS MY LAND, and offers a witty and gracefully-constructed portrait of an individual who would otherwise be a complete outsider to us.
