Synopsis: |
This is the true story of how one young hawk lays claim to Central Park and sets in motion a chain of events that will unite New York City behind his cause. He inspires a young man to become a filmmaker and together, they set out on a 16 year journey through life, death, birth, hope, and redemption. Known as Pale Male, the hawk becomes a magnificent obsession and a metaphor for triumph against all odds. His nest, perched on a posh 5th Avenue co-op, becomes an international tourist destination- a place of pilgrimage. Then, without warning, the building dismantles the nest. New Yorkers discover just how deep their connection to nature really is and how much they are willing to fight for it. | |
