A short (16 min) documentary about John Shepherd who from an early age was obsessed with the idea of contacting extraterrestrial life. He started to teach himself to build equipment and over the decades a small box became a room full of equipment and eventually even an extra building next to the house of his grandparents who rose him.
Shepherd continued his project for decades, living as a hermit in rural USA. Then he ran out of money and had to abandon his life’s work. This documentary looks back on his active years.
