Bird Feeder

'Bird Feeder' is the story of Dave, an everyday man trapped in a cruelly futile job in a coastal city in decay.

Black and White with Red
Shot on a Sony Z1
10 minutes
2007
Filmed in Southampton and Brighton, January 2007
Funded by Screen South's Digital Shorts Strand
Produced by Redbag Pictures Ltd

The city is a coughing heap of dust and mud, suicides are fished from the river and menacing seagulls dominate the garbage hulks that line the coast. As the rain keeps coming and the sorrow with it, one man dares to ask: What if all you needed to get out, was an umbrella?
