AI-generated video summary
Quality and accuracy may vary.

Journey into the Scottish wilderness to meet a person who has lived alone in a forest for nearly 50 years. This Mainstone documentary follows a filmmaker's trek through blizzards and heavy rain to reach a remote dwelling. The resulting story is both surprising and deeply personal.
