An intimate portrait of a family-run roadside recovery business in the Scottish Highlands, as they rescue stranded motorists on some of the most remote roads in Britain.
Our Lives offers an intimate insight into the difficulties faced by a tight-knit family business in the Scottish Highlands. Jamie and his sister Jean run the roadside recovery company their parents began in 1973, rescuing stranded motorists from some of the wildest landscapes and challenging roads in Britain. During the busiest month of the winter, they strive day and night to rescue everything from sports cars to 42-ton trucks. It’s tough work, but they take great pride in seeing people safely on their way.
