As legions of birds fall from New Delhi's darkening skies, and the city smolders with social unrest, two brothers race to save a casualty of the turbulent times: the black kite, a majestic bird of prey essential to their city's ecosystem. Shaunak Sen's Oscar-nominated documentary explores the connection between the kites and the brothers who devote their lives to the quixotic effort of protecting the birds, offering a mesmerizing chronicle of inter-species coexistence.
