Bird

The long-awaited return to fiction filmmaking from Academy Award-winner Andrea Arnold (American Honey, Fish Tank), BIRD is a tender, striking and extraordinarily surprising coming-of-age fable about marginalized life in the fringes of contemporary society. 12-year-old Bailey (astounding newcomer Nykiya Adams) lives with her devoted but chaotic single dad Bug (Barry Keoghan, Saltburn) and wayward brother Hunter in a squat in Gravesend, north Kent. Approaching puberty and seeking attention and adventure, Bailey’s fractured home life is transformed when she encounters Bird (Franz Rogowski, Passages), a mysterious stranger on a journey of his own. A wondrous portrait of the transition from childhood to adolescence that remains grounded in her typically empathetic social realism, Arnold’s latest strides to the wildly poetic rhythm of her own drum. BIRD opens on November 8th in New York City at Angelika Film Center and in Los Angeles at AMC Burbank 16. The film will expand nationwide on November 15th. "An often shimmering, lovely, and emotionally generous entry in a career that’s never faltered." - Indiewire "Bird is Andrea Arnold’s most ambitious work. It also might be her truest masterpiece." - Autostrattle "With Ken Loach now officially retired, Arnold keeps the flame of his passionate socially aware filmmaking burning bright and strong.." - The StandardDramaPT1H59MR2024-12-15
