Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill Q&A with the Filmmaker
Our final film in this series is The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill in which a homeless musician finds meaning to his life when he starts a friendship with dozens of parrots. We’re delighted to have the filmmaker, Judy Irving, join us for a Q&A discussion of the film. First watch the film at your convenience and then join us via Zoom for an engaging discussion in collaboration with the Green Group at the Norfolk Church of Christ, Congregational (UCC). Please register here to be emailed the Zoom link.
Ms. Irving is a Sundance and Emmy Award-winning filmmaker and member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences. The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill was a “Top Ten Film of the Year” (National Film Critics’ Poll), the highest-rated program on the 2007 national PBS series “Independent Lens,” and is now in international distribution. The Wild Parrots of Telegraph Hill is available to stream through Kanopy, which Norfolk Library patrons can access free of charge with a valid Library card. We also have a DVD copy available for circulation in our DVD Documentary collection
