Všichni příležitostně sníme o tom, že se vzdáme své každodenní práce a odstěhujeme se pryč od ruchu a spěchu moderního života. Ale někteří lidé podlehli své touze doopravdy a odešli pryč ode všeho. Ben Fogle cestuje na odlehlá místa naší planety, aby se setkal s lidmi, kteří si vybrali život mimo civilizaci.
