Tom, Sarah, and their daughter Neesa live in a tiny 20sqm off-grid cabin on a property on the Coromandel Peninsula, New Zealand. Instead of paying rent, they share the work of looking after the land with the owners, and both families share in the farms abundant produce. We were inspired by how much happier theyve found themselves by living with less.\r

Tom is a medical doctor and Sarah is an illustrator but both have chosen to reduce their work to almost nothing in order to have more time to focus on living well – a lifestyle choice that is more possible for many of us than we might think… until we really start thinking about it. This little 6-minute film has been one of our most popular to date – perhaps because it describes a lifestyle so many of us would love to be living.\r

This film was made as part of our Living the Change . For thiswere traveling around New Zealand making short documentary films about permaculture farms, tiny houses, and sustainability.\r
