| Synopsis
Kestrel's Eye is unlike any nature film you've ever seen. Filmed over several years, it is a wonder-filled portrait of a family of kestrels (European falcons) who live in a church tower above a small Swedish town. The amazing cinematography, nominated for a Swedish Oscar, captures the intimacy of the birds' lives and creates an "utterly mesmerizing and startlingly original film" (Merrimack Valley Sunday). Reviews "Extraordinary... Captures reality with a fidelity and intimacy that prompts old-fashioned wonder!" - The New York Times "Few movies have plunged their viewers more energetically into the world
of nature." "A simple, beautifully observed tale of survival and regeneration." - San Francisco Chronicle "Extraordinary...mystical...touching. We were left with a feeling of deep reverence for the kestrels." - Spirituality & Practice
