For The Birds
Take flight—or waddle—through this eclectic flock of avian-centered stories!
The Pigeon
A young woman believes her sister has been reincarnated as a pigeon.
PIGEONS
In a world that keeps changing, "PIGEONS" follows a carrier pigeon who loses his job the day a telephone is installed in his owner's home. Searching for food, shelter, and purpose, the film explores freedom, progress, and what gets lost along the way.
A Mystical Ornithology
Ornithologist, poet, and professor Drew Lanham opens his South Carolina farm as a sanctuary for migratory birds. Part meditation, part act of stewardship, the film follows Drew as he listens for what's vanishing and nurtures what endures - birds as fragile messengers and a last wild hope.
Penguin
Returning from Antarctica, a man brings his partner a rare gift. The gift causes a shift in their relationship, which is difficult to cope with. Has the man changed, or is it the woman who suddenly sees him differently?
My Bird Is Sick!
When her pet crow (and only friend) falls ill, an ancient hag living in self-imposed exile must venture to the modern world for help.
Pigeon Soup
In a rural village, a paralyzed grandmother and her pigeon-raising husband move through slow days shaped by quiet comforts and her ongoing truce with a stubborn body - until a family visit stirs memory, celebration, and a pot of their own pigeon soup.
Beautiful Birds
When a widowed birdwatcher reluctantly teams up with her granddaughter for a local birdwatching competition on an island in Scotland, their search for rare species becomes a heartfelt journey through grief, love, and letting go.
