Experience a memorable evening of film, nature and storytelling with a special screening of Flyway of Life (2025).
This visually stunning documentary follows one of the world’s great natural phenomena — bird migration along the Atlantic Flyway — revealing the delicate connections between wildlife, landscapes and the forces that shape them. From tropical wetlands to northern wilderness, Flyway of Life is both a cinematic journey and a powerful reminder of what is at stake in a rapidly changing world.
Following the screening, join producer and filmmaker Tomas Koeck for an exclusive behind-the-scenes conversation. Koeck will share the extraordinary stories behind the film’s creation, including remote expeditions, rare wildlife encounters and the challenges of documenting migration across continents. This intimate talk offers the audience a rare look into the craft of conservation filmmaking and the human stories that unfold behind the camera.
The film is 1 hour and 11 minutes long.
This event is co-hosted by the Essex County Ornithological Club and made possible by a gift from Tim and Joanie Ingraham in memory of PEM Trustee Emeritus Dorothy (Dotty) Addams Brown.
