Director's Statement

My younger brother Troy and I started our journey into raising wolves back in 2004. Sadly, my brother suffered a stroke that forced me to continue alone, and while I was optimistic, I couldn’t have imagined what would come next.

Every time progress was made, something new would go wrong. Animals got sick or passed away, World pandemics put us on the brink of bankruptcy, plans fell through, and crew members left. But I couldn’t give up. I couldn’t leave such a personal project for me and Troy unfinished. Especially with his declining health.

It feels incredible that my stubbornness has finally paid off. We have a film that will challenge minds and touch hearts. Best of all, I was able to bring Troy back on board to see this through to the end in person.

After all this time, not only have we finished a film. We fulfilled a dream. And I would love for you to sit back, relax, and share that dream with us.
