PLANET INDY FILM: THE MESSENGER

In conjunction with the IMA Spring Blooms experience, join us for a series of films highlighting the relationship between our planet, our city and our well-being.

The Messenger explores our deep-seated connection to birds and warns that the uncertain fate of songbirds might mirror our own. Su Rynard takes us on an engaging, visually stunning, emotional journey, one that mixes its elegiac message with hopeful notes and unique glances into the influence of songbirds on our own expressions of the soul. On another level, The Messenger is the artful story about the mass depletion of songbirds on multiple continents, and about those who are working to turn the tide. In ancient times humans looked to the flight and songs of birds to protect the future. Today once again, birds have something to tell us.
