Opening Short Film: My Duduś:
A Polish mother grieves when her only child leaves their home in the suburbs of Chicago to study in Poland. While her son is away, she finds a baby squirrel in her backyard and forges a unique and powerful bond with the animal, raising him as if he were her own child.


Feature Film: Listers: 
Two brothers set off on an unusually feathered adventure: a year living out of a van, chasing birds across the country in pursuit of a Big Year birdwatching contest, because nothing says sibling bonding like arguing over whether that was a warbler or definitely, maybe, 100 percent a sparrow.

Listers is a documentary that follows devoted birdwatchers known as “listers,” who travel widely in their ongoing mission to spot and record as many bird species as possible. Equal parts road film and quiet obsession, it offers an intimate look at the discipline, humor, and deep focus that shape the birding community.

As the miles add up and the checklists grow longer, the film reveals that birdwatching is more than a competition. It is a way of seeing the world with patience, precision, and delight. Beneath the binoculars and rivalry is something unexpectedly tender: a lifelong practice of attention, where every sighting becomes both a score and a moment of connection with the natural world and, occasionally, with your very competitive sibling in a very small van.

Promotional Support: Charlotte Wildlife Stewards, Nutty by Nature, and Windsor Kitten.
