Three years ago, in the pandemic, I went into the woods with some friends to make a movie.

THE NATURE TRIP was made with zero budget, simply a gonzo spirit of adventure and enthusiasm, channeling the freedom and spontaneity of our teenage filmmaking days. And now it’s finally out!

The script was inspired by a trip that director David Buchanan and I took to visit Rob Handy at his off-grid forest garden homestead in Somerset. We wanted the film to be a freewheeling, handmade exploration of Rob’s remote rural lifestyle (and our fantasy of escaping our lives in the city)

If you’d like to learn more about Rob’s life in his forest garden, you can follow him at @robsdiscovery - and if you’re intrigued by “psychomagic”, do check out the documentary by Alejandro Jodorowsky...
