Flight Lessons

Based on a true story?about the Peregrine Falcons and humans living at the convergence of wild and urban habitats on Oakland’s Fruitvale Bridge,?Flight Lessons?explores themes of home, migration, adaptation and the limits of the man-made environment.

The narrative follows an urban wildlife biologist who monitors the breeding pair of Peregrine Falcons nesting on the bridge and how their lives intersect with the human inhabitants of the neighborhood after one of the birds is shot.?

Examining the?crossroads of life, loss, nature and humanity,?Flight Lessons?asks the questions: How can we learn to value the wild and natural in an urban environment? And, how does one recover and continue after loss?
