This film follows street musician Mark Bittner into San Francisco’s avian subculture, where a remarkable flock of wild green and red parrots live and work to survive. Dubbed the “Bohemian St. Francis,” Bittner falls in with the flock as he searches for his path through life, unaware that the wild parrots will do more for him than eat his sunflower seeds (83 min).
Free matinee screenings are presented in conjunction with the Museum’s admission-free first Tuesdays of the month.
Presented in conjunction with the exhibition Do Not Destroy: Trees, Art, and Jewish Thought.
