Guided by the wisdom of his grandfather Calvin (Cal) DeWitt, young filmmaker Ben Albert journeys through the mysterious world of the Waubesa Wetlands in this exploration of natural wonder and the intrinsic bond between humans and nature.

Navigating the challenges of this environment and learning from his grandfather – a wetland scientist who has lived on the marsh’s edge for over 50 years – Albert captures the wetland ecosystem in a new light. By combining Albert’s visuals with DeWitt’s knowledge and wisdom, the film uncovers the life, mysteries, and value of wetlands in a way never seen before.
