Mikael Lypinski likes to portray various nomads, rebels against the system, refugees and outcasts. This time he focuses his camera lens on a small community living in the mountainous forests of Oregon. People live there in a Spartan way, on their own terms and in close contact with nature, animals and each other. The film protagonists have had traumatic experiences, their lives are far from idyllic; nevertheless, they have managed to find their own place on Earth. Time passes here in a different way, as reflected in this film - a rough ballad about people for whom the outskirts of the world have become its centre.
