Bird, the new film by Andrea Arnold (Fish Tank, American Honey), paints a portrait of life on the fringes of British society, in which a family goes through fire for each other despite the circumstances.

Bug has little time for her, as he is getting married soon and has a fantastic idea to make a quick buck. To escape the chaos at home, Bailey spends a lot of time on his own – preferably outside in nature. Then, suddenly, she meets the eccentric and quirky Bird (Franz Rogowski), who is looking for his birthplace nearby. Curious but cautious, Bailey decides to help him.
