This short 20-minute film focuses on a crow named Canuck’s close relationship with his human friend Shawn Bergman. The two became fast friends after Bergman’s landlord, whose son found Canuck as a baby and raised him, released the bird back into the wild.
At the release, Canuck hopped on Bergman’s arm, and the pair have pretty much been inseparable ever since. When they aren’t together, Canuck has become famous for his shenanigans, which the film also covers by highlighting various news coverage over the years, including Canuck’s rise to social-media fame.
To make the documentary, a small team of filmmakers followed the dynamic pair over the course of five months, capturing their ordinary, yet remarkable, daily rituals and routines. The team also conducted various outside interviews that are used throughout the film to lend perspective to this special relationship. All this time and effort paid off. Whether you’re already a fan of Canuck or this will be your first time meeting him, the film is definitely worth a watch. Check it out below…
