Event description

The film follows a small group of young people in Gippsland Victoria Australia, who came together in an experiment for 12 months to explore and demonstrate a Simpler Way to live in response to any global crises. Throughout the year the group built tiny houses, planted veggie gardens, converted a shed to a community kitchen amd meeting place, practiced simple living and discovered the challenges of living in a new community.

The film documents the community’s learning process as well as exploring the global issues we’re facing, through interviews with some of today’s most interesting speakers on the subjects, including permaculture co-originator David Holmgren, filmmaker and activist Helena Norberg-Hodge, climate change activist David Spratt and many more.

This was the very first film to explore community living with young people who wanted a better life off the grid and exploring true self sufficency where no utility bills and mortgage payments dominated their lives.

The film makers lived on the property as part of the project for an entire year documenting the project from start to finish. Little did they know this film is more current today than it ever was, back then in 2016.

It was a truly life-changing year!
