Bailey is only 12 years old, but she is already fed up with adulthood. Her mother lives separately with her daughters and her abuser boyfriend. Her Dad’s getting married. Her older brother and his friends bully the neighbourhood. But soon Bailey meets a strange man in a kilt who calls himself Bird.

Andrea Arnold continues to do no wrong, embedding themes from previous works like Fish Tank and American Honey into her excellent new Bird.

— Brian Tallerico, rogerebert.com

Andrea Arnold, Oscar winner and Cannes laureate, has once again made a film in the genre of realism of the urban suburbs, but this time it is invaded by magical realism. This is the warmest and most sincere work of her career, with brilliant performances from Franz Rogowski and Barry Keoghan.
