THE RETIRING HERMIT

Link to the movie THE RETIRING HERMIT

It’s about a man, Peter Cornish, who - in the seventies -
bought a gigantic piece of land on the West Coast of Ireland
with the aim of realising his dream. Now this ‘dream’ has
grown into one of the most important retreat-centres in
the world where people go to prepare for death, but most
of all to find meaning in life.

Peter, with his very bad eyesight, started to build from scratch
with no professional assistance, just with a little help from
his friends. He is 60 years old now and wants to retreat to
this fantastic dwelling of breath-taking beauty.
