Lawrence MacEwen has farmed the Isle of Muck since the late 1960s. With his family he has created a rural retreat, out of time with the rapid transformations of the world around it. Revered for his eco-conscious stewardship in the 1970s, Lawrence now finds himself stubbornly battling to preserve the island for the next generation. Dutch filmmaker Cindy Jansen captures a uniquely cinematic portrait of a place and a person haunted by the past and struggling to maintain their relevance for the future.
悄然地生，诚恳地活，安详地走，这老头窝在一方水土，没做过惊天动地的事，却是顶天立地活过一辈子。旁观的主体风格里有老伴儿几句突兀的评论，而儿子躲闪的身影暗藏着两代人难以理清的隔阂，但那是另一个俗世的话题。老人光着的脚、躬着的背和爱抚的牛、吟诵的诗已经包含了无限的可看性，导演不应奢求更多。R.I.P. Lawrence.
