Let Me Have My Son
Partially filmed here on the grounds of Eagle's Healing Nest, featuring some of our Nest family members, Let Me Have My Son "is based on the true story of the writer-director’s compelling journey with his firstborn son, Daniel, as told in the book of the same title. The storyline is a semi-autobiographical, emotion-laden tale of a father coming to grips with his son’s devastating mental illness."
