Andrea Arnold / GB, US, FR, DE, 2024 / 119 min.

This new magical realist film from Andrea Arnold follows highly imaginative 12-year-old Bailey, who lives with her father Bug and her younger brother in a squat in Kent. Bug doesn’t have much time for his children, so Bailey goes in search of attention and adventure elsewhere.

poster Bird (Andrea Arnold, GB/US/FR/DE 2024)
Twelve-year-old Bailey (played by charismatic newcomer Nykiya Adams) lives with her emotionally chaotic father Bug in a house covered in graffiti. When Bug tells her he’s soon going to get married to his new girlfriend, Bailey feels furious and hurt – what is going to become of her now? Her mother lives with a violent man, and although Bug has a wild love for his daughter, he has no idea what a young teenage girl needs.
