First review of ‘Birdhouse’ by @8EYEZUK:


“It was refreshing to see disability represented on screen within a story that feels both authentic and urgent. When a Local gang takes advantage of a vulnerable individual, the situation quickly spirals into chaos, revealing how easily society fails those most in need of protection.
The film sheds light on an often overlooked narrative, exploring the intersection of power, exploitation and innocence. Moritz Valero's storytelling was so compelling that many of us were left wishing for a feature-length expansion to delve deeper into the characters' backstories and relationships. The gasps at the film's ending were proof of just how invested the audience had become - a testament to its tension, pacing and emotional depth.“
