“Delicate and immensely touching. A big celebration of tiny things- Indiewire
“Big-hearted… effortlessly riveting. Offers a vision of compassion as a way of life.” – The Hollywood Reporter
Author and wildlife rehabber Terry Masear has an ambitious goal: to save every injured hummingbird in Los Angeles. But the path to survival is fraught with danger. This heart-expanding Sundance hit introduces audiences to Terry’s diminutive patients through breathtaking slow-motion photography and emotional story telling. Over the course of director Sally Aitken’s moving documentary, we become deeply invested in humming birds like Cactus, Raisin, Jimmy, and Wasabi, celebrating their tiny victories and lamenting their tragedies. Through Terry’s eyes, each bird becomes memorable, mighty and heroic. Her compassion and empathy serves as a reminder that grace can be found in the smallest of acts and the tiniest of creatures.
