Welcome to River Wild Films!!
Inspired by my son, River, we started River Wild Films to write, produce and direct films that are family friendly and all about human connection.
Our first feature film, Getting Back, is in pre-production now. Filming will take place in May 2025.

Getting Back
Getting Back has universal themes of grief, fear, hope, family and love. There are deep emotional struggles balanced with lightness and imagination. It explores how we all deal with grief differently, while trying to hold on to the bonds we have.
