Written and directed by Tee Schneider, produced by Joanna Swan, Little Bird is a film about tenacity- having it, keeping it and finding it again when it gets lost. It's a film about empathy and connection, compassion and sacrifice. It's a film about women who care enough to make the hard choices. It's a film about women who brush themselves off and put one foot in front of the other even when the world around them is completely out of control. It's most certainly about the resilience of girls. Little Bird explores invisible illness, the long-term fallout of unmanaged depression and the unimaginable horror of interrupted adoption. In the end, it's a film about the choices we all have, big or small, at any age, in any circumstance- even the ones we can't control.
