This is the story of a rare American man and the wild creatures he loved. John James Audubon’s obsession cost him and his family dearly, but his work influenced every generation of nature lover that came after him, from Thoreau to Teddy Roosevelt, and has helped to preserve a small portion of the wild lands he explored and documented. The legacy of Audubon is as timeless and vital as his art, and this film is an effort to appreciate him as he deserves. Presented in conjunction with the Audubon Society of the Capital Region.
