I can only agree with this youtube comment. Thanks for the heads up.

Living life on your own terms does not mean we dictate the end. I could not help but feel sympathy for Paul, as he endures the final chapters of a wild adventure. The kind and gentle island folk soften the edges of Pauls struggles with his inner conflicts. His last refuge and home seems pretty much tethered to the island and its beautiful people. A truly wonderful piece of cinema-photography and exquisite creative direction. The solitude of the aging process is laid bare – Paul 'medicating' his way through it like a true brassy sailor.

Wish it could have been a bit longer and more about who he was but it was a nice glimpse into an unusual life

He sorta reminded me of Richard Proenneke

I admire such people, that just go off on their own and do what needs to be done to survive
