Sundance and Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Judy Irving (“The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill”) follows a wayward California brown pelican from her “arrest” on the Golden Gate Bridge into care at a wildlife rehabilitation facility, and from there explores pelicans’ nesting grounds, Pacific coast migration, and survival challenges. The film is about wildness. How close can we get to a wild animal without taming or harming it? Why do we need wildness in our lives, and how can we protect it?For ticket information go towww.pickfordfilmcenter.org
