Patchwork Wild is a film about people who care deeply for their place, told through the 60-mile journey of four trekkers moving through the heart of one of the most threatened sections of Florida’s proposed wildlife corridor. In conversation with the likes of Path of the Panther, this short film focuses on an essential and particularly vulnerable section of the 18 million-acre vision for a wildlife corridor through Florida. In addition to the trekkers themselves, the people they encounter along their journey reveal the myriad ways people connect to the land – through legacy and livelihood – and celebrate what those connections provide. The film features the original trekkers, Mallory Dimmitt, Joe Guthrie, and Carlton Ward Jr. who brought the vision of a connected corridor to life, alongside the next generation of advocates experiencing, celebrating, and fighting for Florida’s wild. The film is urgent, conveying the imminence of protecting the remaining corridor against rapidly encroaching development, and it is a joyful celebration of the wild that remains – in Florida, and in us.
