Every year, dedicated birdwatchers attempt what is known as a Big Year, travelling enormous distances to identify as many bird species as possible within twelve months. For some, it's a pleasant hobby. For others, it borders on an obsession.

Brothers Owen and Quentin Reiser decide to discover what all the fuss is about by purchasing a second-hand minivan and spending an entire year travelling across the United States. Armed with binoculars, cameras and rather more enthusiasm than experience, they immerse themselves in the surprisingly competitive world of birdwatching.

Along the way, they encounter eccentric enthusiasts, elusive species, spectacular landscapes and the peculiar rituals of a community prepared to go to extraordinary lengths for the sighting of a single bird.

Directed by Owen Reiser, this independently produced documentary combines wildlife photography, road-trip comedy and an affectionate examination of obsession, competition and our relationship with the natural world.
