Adam and Ryan, are waiting for their sick father, William, to die so they can receive their fathers' inheritance. Upon William's death, the brothers discover that William gave away his inheritance to the Indigenous people of Bird--a rural hamlet in Northern Canada. Thus, the brothers embark on a journey to the Bird--to convince the Chief of the band, Ed Whitford, to disclaim the estate--with little expectations of the adventures they would encounter that would set events beyond their control.

Federico Furzan Movie-Blogger.com A quick drama that won't change the world but it offers a deep look into a culture we need to observe more often. Rated: 3/5 Nov 13, 2024 Full Review Morgan Rojas Cinemacy An exploration of human fragility and empathy in a world often driven by corporate greed and selfishness. Nov 7, 2024 Full Review Victoria Luxford D Movies Offering a surprise twist in the third act that will prompt some discussion, The Birds Who Fear Death takes the framework of a road movie and creates something much more substantial. Rated: 4/5 Oct 31, 2024 Full Review Shikhar Verma High on Films The third act feels hackneyed and contrived, with the pivot into something more serious taking away from the gentle, unhurried buildup that his story had. Rated: 2/5 Oct 27, 2024 Full Review Victor Pineyro Seventh Art Studio Adam Breach, Carmen Moore and Graham Greene are a delight to see, but the film lacks of an emotional standpoint. We care very little about these characters moving through real problems with unreal resolutions. [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 5/10 Oct 25, 2024 Full Review Sabina Dana Plasse Film Threat The Birds Who Fear Death is a mindful film about living and what is left behind. It’s a conscious effort to tell a soulful and connected story about Indigenous people. Rated: 7.5/10 Oct 22, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
