<p>Wildcat follows the emotional and inspiring story of a young veteran on his journey into the Amazon. Once there, he meets a young woman running a wildlife rescue and rehabilitation center, and his life finds new meaning as he is entrusted with the life of an orphaned baby ocelot. What was meant to be an attempt to escape from life, turns out to be an unexpected journey of love, discovery, and healing.</p>

<p>In this episode, Dawn talks with co-Directors Melissa Lesh and Trevor Beck Frost about making a conservation-focused film that has other touch-points for audiences through sharing a veteran's story, childhood trauma and mental health struggles. They also discuss the logistics of making a film in the Amazon, like bathing in a stream with a bucket, and the emotional toll documentary filmmaking can take on its makers. </p>
