How I Live Simply at 80 Years Old

Support us in creating more films like this :   / reflectionsoflife   Thank you. Justine & Michael 💚 To live simply is not about giving things up, but about choosing what feels true and grounding. It’s a chance to step away from the rush, to make space for stillness, and to let nature guide us back to balance. In that slower rhythm, there’s often a freedom — a reminder that life’s richness is found not in how much we gather, but in how deeply we experience the little moments. Simplicity can also be an offering, a way of living with kindness towards ourselves and the world. It brings with it a sense of belonging, showing us that enough has always been within reach — waiting patiently in the ordinary, everyday flow of life. Featuring Richard. Filmed in South Africa. All of our films are made possible through the generous support of our patrons.

We are Justine and Michael. We use our passion for filmmaking and our love of storytelling, to remind our audience of one simple truth – that we are all human. The more that we understand and believe in this interconnectedness, the more we will treat ourselves, one another, and planet earth with a greater sense of compassion. In collaboration with iNous, we recently released a beautiful deck of 52 cards - each card containing a quote from one of our films, paired with the activating visual muses of Lanon Prigge. The aim of this deck is to rekindle child-like curiosity and creativity, helping to navigate the shared waters of our human experience with grace and joy.
