For centuries, a small community of fishermen and their families lived on the "Red Eye" of Rödlöga. Its location, far out in the Archipelago, fed by wells of drinking water, small areas for farming, and rich fishing waters in the open Baltic Sea, made Rödlöga an idyllic place to live. 

In the late 19th century and early 20th century — Rödlöga became increasingly popular as a summer destination for city dwellers from Stockholm. Its untouched nature, cut off from modern distractions, has created a life not unsimilar to one that existed hundreds of years ago. Visitors come to kayak, sail, hike and camp while residents maintain the land as a nature reserve - protecting both the land and the waters around it.

In making the film, our hope is that many more people will visit the outer Stockholm Archipelago to experience the unique balance that Rödlogans are able to achieve every summer.
