About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you like intimate, nature-focused documentaries about human-animal bonds and quiet wilderness living; Not for you if you want fast pacing, lots of interviews, or a broad historical scope like The Cold Blue.

Pros: surprisingly moving animal bond; suspenseful wilderness moments; eye-opening turkey behavior | Cons: slow start for some; limited human variety; niche subject matter
