DESCRIPTION:West Coast Premiere.\n\nDiscussion with: Roger Kass, director; Andrea 
 Rutigliano, CABS (Committee Against Bird Slaughter); Jonathan Franzen, 
 executive producer.\n\nBased on a magazine essay written in 'The New 
 Yorker' by best-selling novelist Jonathan Franzen, 'Emptying the Skies' 
 explores the wonder and slaughter of migratory songbirds in the 
 Mediterranean. A delicacy in some Mediterranean countries, millions of 
 birds are unlawfully killed each year for large sums on the black market. 
 Filmmaker Roger Kass follows an intrepid squad of pan-European bird-lovers 
 who risk their lives waging a secret war against poachers, disrupting 
 illegal trapping and freeing as many birds as possible. Jonathan Franzen 
 executive produces the film - his first foray into feature motion picture 
 production - and provides a narration that goes to the heart of what it 
 means to protect these beautiful, vulnerable birds.\n\n"It’s The Cove for 
 bird lovers." - DC Metro Theater Arts\n\nWatch trailer
