Where in the world is Jason Scott Lee?
If you guessed “nowhere” you’d be close.
“Simplicity of living gives you sensitivity of character,” says Lee. “A lot of people told me that leaving L.A. and moving to Volcano would ruin my career, but that’s my kuleana, my business.”
Start, then, at the physical space Lee calls Pu Mu. For more than six years, Lee has lived in a modest farm house situated on more than 25 acres in the Volcano district of the Big Island. There’s no electricity there, no real plumbing to speak of, either. It is, by design, as far removed from the Hollywood life as any major actor might ever dream.
Far out man. Wild.

Check out ‘American House’, a documentary about living spaces across the US. same producer as ‘American Movie’ - a must watch flick for anyone interested in producing indie movies (if you can be more passionate than that guy - I’ll invest in your project).
