They Left Modern Society to Live in a UK Forest 30 Years Ago. Here's What Happened.
Hidden deep within the British countryside is one of the UK's most unique communities—a place where people have chosen to live without modern conveniences, relying on simple living, woodland skills, and a close connection with nature.
For over 30 years, the residents of Tinker's Bubble have quietly built a different way of life. This documentary offers a rare glimpse inside their community, exploring not only how they live, but why they chose this path in an increasingly fast-paced and technology-driven world.Most members of the community do not use social media, preferring a quieter and more private way of life connected with nature.
What makes this film especially rare is that filming inside Tinker's Bubble has not been permitted for more than a decade. I am deeply honoured that the community trusted me with the opportunity to document their lives and share their story with the world.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone at Tinker's Bubble for your kindness, openness, and hospitality. Your generosity made this documentary possible, and I hope this film reflects the respect and admiration I have for your community.
