Film Description

Can a dream live for 30 years? In 1979 Donnie Emerson wrote an album full of songs and then recorded them with his brother Joe in a cabin.  Their Dad leveraged their farm for some vinyl pressings and…..nothing. In the late 90s a music aficionado sampled a bunch of discards and found “Dreamin’ Wild”.  Original music by two teenagers? He used his connections and countless steps later now we have an artful and enchanting film.

REVIEWS

“Dreamin’ Wild” is a rich and evocative portrait of the weight of broken dreams and the strength one can find in a family as unwaveringly supportive as the Emersons.
