You’re invited to join us for a theatrical screening of Wildcat, followed by an in-person conversation with director/producer Melissa Lesh; producer, Film Independent Fellow and Spirit Award winner Alysa Nahmias; and producer Joshua Altman, moderated by Jenn Wilson (Senior Programmer, Film Independent).

Wildcat follows the emotional and inspiring story of a young veteran on his journey into the Amazon. Once there, he meets a young female scientist 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.

From Amazon Studios, Wildcat will be in select theaters December 21 and on Prime Video December 30.
