Wild Life
DIRECTOR(S):
Jimmy Chin, Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi SYNOPSIS:
From Oscar®-winning filmmakers Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin, this film follows conservationist Kris Tompkins on an epic, decades-spanning love story as wild as the landscapes she dedicated her life to protecting. After falling in love in midlife, Kris and Doug Tompkins left behind the world of the massively successful outdoor brands they’d helped pioneer—Patagonia, The North Face, and Esprit—and turned their attention to a visionary effort to create national parks throughout Chile and Argentina via their nonprofit Tompkins Conservation.
