Bogancloch is where modern day hermit Jake Williams lives, nestled in a vast highland forest of Scotland. The film portrays his life throughout the seasons, with other people occasionally crossing into his otherwise solitary life. At the heart a song, an argument between life and death, each stating their case to rule over the world. The film is without exposition, it aims at something less recognizable, to a different existence of reality observed in discrete moments.
A sequel to TWO YEARS AT SEA, charting a subtly changing life in a radically changing world.

The film follows his unconventional life, capturing moments of profound beauty.
