The Hermit of Treig

[A] lovely, compassionate documentary...

When a film-maker is clearly captivated by their subject, the film can compel viewers to fall in love as well.

Spellbinding, provocative and heartfelt.

Portrays a man with a touch of poetry in his soul, who is apparently immune to loneliness.

There are things to be learnt from his lifestyle and his appreciation of nature, but the film doesn’t preach: it’s merely a portrait of an individual.

A gentle, illuminating picture of what makes a fulfilling life.

The film feels like reading a diary, complete with tiny observations and grand thoughts on life, and by so keenly translating Ken’s life to the screen, The Hermit of Treig gets to the heart of this most unique man and way of living.
