Homebird

Directed by Aoife Doyle

Steo, a salt-of-the-earth seagull, and air marshall at Dublin’s busiest avian airport, has never had the desire to leave home knowing that his little wing only allows him to fly around to the shops and back and not much further, but today the touching reunions he’s witnessing on the tarmac give him an epiphany…maybe he should leave and get a real homecoming when he comes back! With a new sense of purpose, Steo dives head on into his mission, learning flight secrets from the amazing world travellers he meets. To his disappointment, he soon realises that he’s just not cut out for long distance flying. Seeing his pal’s disappointment, Dave organises a surprise for Steo, a special homecoming with all his friends… after all… he’s their home…he’s part of everyone’s home!
