  Based on a true story of wildlife artist and naturalist, Joe Hutto, 
this beautiful, charming,
funny, sad, and thought-provoking film explores one of those rare 
moments when man and animal unwittingly become more closely linked 
than nature normally allows. It had long been Joe's hope to learn 
about the secret world of wild turkeys and upon finding 16 turkey 
eggs on his doorstep one day, Joe was determined to become their 
mother, by having the newly born chicks "imprint" on him. It was a 
role he had to learn from scratch and an experience that would change 
his life in ways he could not have imagined. The journal that Hutto 
kept of his life as a turkey ultimately became a book, entitled 
"Illumination of the Flatwoods." His story is reenacted in this film 
in full, as he lived it.

Join us every month for compelling, educational and visually stunning 
nature documentaries that inspire appreciation, curiosity and 
stewardship of our natural world and its inhabitants.
