The old man in the cottage - fantastic documentary

A documentary about a man living a simple, off-grid and self sufficient life by himself in a small cottage in the Swedish woods. A camera follows him through a year, starting in winter time. No speak, just natural sounds from his life.

One of the best documentaries ever made. See the man planting potatoes and kale, harvesting, watching the birds in the garden, making minor repairs on the building, firing up the wood stove, making pancakes. Listening to the transistor radio. Very soothing and satisfying watch.
