Outdated sheep fences have excluded pronghorn from prime habitat in the Red Desert of Wyoming for over 75 years. After record snowfall in 2022-23 caused thousands of animals to perish along the fences, a group of wildlife professionals discovered an area of more than 100,000 acres that was excluding pronghorn. Within a year's time, conservation groups and a rancher worked together to restore access to the pronghorn's historic habitats and give this species a better chance at surviving an uncertain future.

Death Reigns

In 2022, radio hosts and music promoters Raven Moonla and Zach Moonshine organized an underground metal music festival in small town Tennessee. In doing so, they became a target for outrage from religious fundamentalists and conservative politicians, as well as a rallying point for those outside of the Bible Belt’s constrictive culture. Death Reigns follows Zach and Raven’s Metal Devastation Festival, its impact, and triumph over the forces that attempted to silence it.

kaze no e (or why the wind whispers among the leaves)

Four young researchers in Big Sky Country begin to wonder about the vastness of the world and greater cosmos. If non-human presences were capable of harboring intelligence and communicating, what information could they pass along? Using the trees and wind as messengers, the researchers record and decipher writings and recordings from the trees and wind, relating them back to the land and universe, before finding ways to embody them through sound and movement as a form of empathy and communion with a greater intelligence.
