“A cult film, which documents the eccentric lives of the Page family, consisting of the elderly Mr Page and his adult children Jim, Pete, Nancy and Kath, who lived in a wood in Sussex, without mains gas, electricity or running water. The sons find employment by fixing mechanical things as odd jobs and maintain two traction engines.” (Keith Griffiths)
