Jake lives alone in a ramshackle house, in the middle of the forest. It's full of curiosities from a bygone age, including a beloved old gramophone. His daily life is shown across the seasons, as he occupies himself going for walks in all weathers, and taking naps in the misty fields and woods. Endlessly resourceful, he builds a raft to fish in a loch.
