As an owl that was born in captivity, Flaco was unable to fly at the time of his escape. At first, birders wondered if he’d be able to fly at all. Miraculously, he not only flew but began to be spotted sitting on window units outside of people’s apartments all over the city. Following the story of the bird himself and the people who followed him for over a year, acclaimed director Penny Lane (Hail Satan, Our Nixon, Nuts!) shows us the outcome of his great excape is more incredible, and more consequential, than we could have ever imagined.
