Set to the music of recent Hawaiian artists, The Edge of Paradise (SLYT) is a quiet, contemplative documentary on Taylor Camp, a treehouse community of war veterans and hippies that thrived on a jungle-backed beach on Kaua'i in the 1960s and 1970s (cw: black and white archival stills of unclothed community members, oral recollections of police actions against the community).

Wikipedia has a short article that doesn't say much but does have a useful list of references. Including a Smithsonian Magazine article.

The "most replayed" on YouTube is hilarious, a graph of boobies in time. Fortunately it also works for what I was most interested in, where to skip to see what the homes looked like.
