Critically acclaimed new environmental documentary from director, Scott Crocker. Set in a murky swamp overrun with birders, scientists, and reporters, “Ghost Bird” explores the limits of certainty, the seductive power of hope, and how one phantom woodpecker changed a sleepy Southern town forever. Now six years after its initial sighting, the woodpecker remains as elusive as ever. “Ghost Bird” brings the Ivory-bill’s blurry rediscovery into focus revealing our uneasy relationship with nature and the increasing uncertainty of our place within it.
