Ornithologist Seán Ronayne sets out to record every Irish bird song in this moving portrait of loss and hope.
From the windswept cliffs of Skellig Michael to
the wild edges of Tory Island, we follow Seán
Ronayne, an Irish ornithologist on his unique
quest: to record the song of every bird species
in Ireland. His hypersensitivity to sound helps
him capture Ireland’s fragile sonic landscapes.
Blending breathtaking nature with a powerful
story of loss and hope, Birdsong is a powerful
reminder of what we stand to lose if we stop
listening.
For nature lovers, friends of feather and forest,
and all who find beauty in the wild.
The screening is followed by a talk with Dale Forbes from Swarovski Optik.
