If you followed the viral saga of Flaco, the Eurasian Eagle-Owl who escaped from the Central Park Zoo and captured the hearts of New Yorkers, you won't want to miss *Wild Inside*. Screening at the Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema in the Annex, this heartwarming and visually stunning documentary follows Flaco's magical odyssey through the concrete canyons of Manhattan as he overcomes years of captivity to answer the call of the wild.
Director Q&A and Venue Experience
Following the screening, audiences can stick around for an exclusive virtual Q&A with director Penny Lane, known for her sharp, engaging nonfiction storytelling. Located right on Bloor Street West near Bathurst, the historic Hot Docs Cinema is Canada's premier documentary screening house. Grab a craft beer or locally roasted coffee at the concession stand before settling into the comfortable heritage auditorium.
