A trailer has been released for Richard Miron‘s upcoming documentary, For The Birds, which follows Kathy, a woman who lives with 200 chickens, ducks, geese, and turkeys. The ongoing battle with animal advocacy groups however, puts a strain on Kathy’s relationship with her family.
For the Birds opens in New York May 31st and Los Angeles June 14th.
In Richard Miron’s surprising and empathetic For the Birds, we follow an unusual woman named Kathy who lives with 200 pet chickens, ducks, geese and turkeys. What starts as a story seemingly about Kathy’s battle with local animal advocacy groups slowly transforms into an intimate drama about her relationship with her husband Gary, and the toll the birds have taken on their marriage and her well-being. Filmed over the course of five years, this sensitive tale of one woman’s world breaking down—poignant and absorbing in equal measure—is ultimately one of hope about the possibility of regaining one’s life.
