All That Breathes

The Peregrine Fund is excited to host the stars of the Academy Award-nominated documentary All That Breathes for a special screening at the Egyptian Theatre to raise funds for raptor conservation. Money raised from ticket sales will benefit The Peregrine Fund and Wildlife Rescue (based in Delhi, India). Brothers Nadeem Shehzad and Muhammad Saud, whose raptor rescue efforts are featured in the film, will take part in a Q-and-A with The Peregrine Fund's President & CEO, Chris Parish, and Executive VP of Science & Conservation, Dr. Chris McClure, and audience members afterward to share updates to their story.  

About All That Breathes: 

In one of the world's most populated cities, two brothers—Nadeem Shehzad and Muhammad Saud—devote their lives to the quixotic effort of protecting the black kite, a majestic bird of prey essential to the ecosystem of New Delhi that has been falling from the sky at alarming rates. Amid environmental toxicity and social unrest, the 'kite brothers' spend day and night caring for the creatures in their makeshift avian basement hospital. Director Shaunak Sen (Cities of Sleep) explores the connection between the kites and the brothers who help them return to the skies, offering a mesmerizing chronicle of inter-species coexistence.
