Geronimo1967
This is the fascinating story of Ken Smith, a positively sprightly old gent who lives in isolation on the shores of a remote Scottish loch. Devoid of electricity or plumbing, he survives the harshest of winters and the delights of the summer months in his hand-built log cabin. Director Lizzie MacKenzie has befriended him and using her hand-held camera, we get a real sense of just how basic his lifestyle is. Technology allows him to connect with the outside world and latterly he has become entitled to a modest state pension that enables him have his shopping delivered by one of the park rangers. After a bit of an health scare he now has people who keep an eye on him. He has a radio transmitter that he must use to check in with "civilisation"...
