Collaborating with the environmental organization LandPaths and the dance company Fog Beast, filmmaker Lindsay Gauthier is creating a short narrative film Wild, a visual, emotional, and kinesthetic journey following the experience of someone who is having an unexpected encounter with a wild space for the first time. Conveyed with dance as a major component, this film will be developed through rigorous research by the artists, engagement with the LandPaths community and programs, and immersion in wild spaces together. Gauthier and Fog Beast will focus their artistic lenses on the human/land relationship, making a paradigm shift from separation and dominance to relevance and stewardship.
From this collaborative process, Gauthier will create a special dance film for the SFDFF with Melecio Estrella and Andrew Ward, co-directors of Fog Beast.
