Al grew up with Birdy in a working-class neighbourhood. Al watches his best friend after the war as PTSD traps Birdy inside his own mind. His magical mind means that his fantasies become his reality. Flashback sequences of their youth help Birdy get back to reality, reveal his mysterious mind, and explore his fascination with all types of birds.

Mother Joan of the Angels – 4k

This landmark of Polish cinema is based on the infamous ‘demonic possession’ of a group of nuns in Loudun, France in 1634, which led to a priest being burnt at the stake. These scandalous events also inspired Aldous Huxley’s 1952 novel The Devils of Loudon, and Ken Russell’s notorious 1971 film The Devils.
