H Is For Hawk + Q&A

A university lecturer turns to falconry following the death of her father and builds a deep connection with a goshawk in this drama based on the memoir by Helen Macdonald.

We are thrilled to be joined after this screening for a live in-person conversation between the film’s Director Philippa Lowthorpe, and Bird Trainer Lloyd Buck, hosted by Head of Bristol Film School, Freya Billington.

They have a team of birds specially trained for filming both on location and in studio situations. They also regularly train new birds for specific projects. Lloyd and Rose are the world’s experts at in-flight and tracking filming with birds.
