MASA OFF THE GRID
Urbanite Masa Takei was fascinated with the idea of a simpler,
self-sufficient lifestyle. He wondered if he “had what it takes” to
build a shelter and to hunt for his food, with no running water,
no electricity or other comforts of home. Setting out for a year
to live and learn in a remote, northern, off grid location, Masa
takes viewers along for the entire experience.
