Ring van helder water

Deze serie duikt in de diepe band tussen mens en wildernis, gesitueerd tegen het ruige maar prachtige Schotse landschap. Dompel je onder in verhalen over eenzaamheid, gezelschap en blijvende veerkracht te midden van de elementen. Volg personages terwijl ze isolatie en het adembenemende landschap doorkruisen, en leren vreugde en betekenis te vinden in het eenvoudige leven en de wezens die ze tegenkomen. Het is een viering van de ongetemde wildernis en de fragiele schoonheid van het leven aan een afgelegen kust.
