The Mountain Lion And Me
1 x 60’, 2017, 4K
Mountain Lions are one of the most elusive creatures on the planet, some say harder to film than snow leopards. Most people live their lives without even a glimpse, while those who have seen a mountain lion describe the experience as fleeting, more a shadow than reality. That is until one fateful winter’s night when a wild female mountain lion revealed herself to Casey Anderson in Montana, he begins filming an intimate view of her life and newly born cubs.
