and see his latest work. The duo of Andrea Arnold and Barry Keoghan made Bird an incredibly exciting project upon announcement, especially considering the actor left Gladiator II to take on dramatic indie. Arnold is an Oscar winner who consistently delivers critically acclaimed work and Bird reviews from the start continued this trend with its positive reception following its premiere at the Cannes Film Festival.
BirdMubi’s premiere at Cannes led to Mubi acquiring the film’s distribution rights and devising a plan for the general public to see the film.
