In the forests of the Pacific Northwest, Ben Cash raises his six children off the grid by himself after his wife was hospitalized for bipolar disorder. Being disillusioned with capitalism and American life, he elected to instill real world life lessons as well as strong philosophical understanding into the lives of his six children.

Although Ben is shown to be a loving father, he is also extremely strict in regards to adherence to physical exercise and combat training and equally determined that even his youngest children read extensive texts ranging from foreign language to quantum mechanics. The children, for their part, are deeply happy with their lifestyle, with the notable exception of teenage son Rellian.

 

The family has to travel across the country for their mother’s funeral and the children receive their first glimpses of city life.
