H is for Hawk

Academic Helen is shattered by the sudden death of her father, a loss that drives her to withdraw from the world she once knew. Seeking solace, she returns to the wild landscapes and shared passions of her childhood, immersing herself in falconry as a way to navigate her grief. When she takes on the formidable task of training Mabel, a fierce and untamable goshawk, Helen is pulled into a raw, demanding relationship that tests her limits and reshapes her understanding of survival.

What begins as an act of escape becomes a powerful journey of resilience, connection, and emotional rebirth. Shot against the sweeping terrain of Wales and adapted from Helen Macdonald’s acclaimed memoir, H Is for Hawk features a transformative performance from Claire Foy, who brings piercing depth to a woman seeking meaning in the uncompromising rhythms of the natural world.
