Looking for nature at its purest, the two teenage boys have to deal with the cruelty of violent barbarians. Their trip will also make them meet a lost orphan girl and a wise beggar.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Man Follows Birds is an acquired taste at 5.1/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1975. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
