When is a documentary about Hummingbirds more than just another educational nature documentary? In the case of Sally Aitken’s new movie, EVERY LITTLE THING, we discover that small things are very big things, and you will be more than a little surprised.
Hummingbirds’ wings beat fifty times per second, and with astounding high speed photography, they float like gossamer on the screen, captured like small magic sprites. Terry Masear, the films subject, runs a Hummingbird Rescue and she too, is magical and surprising.
No bigger than your little finger, these remarkable birds become bigger than life, as we discover Terry’s care, attention, wisdom, and affection for these little beings.
It’s a film that will stay with you long after you leave the theater. EVERY LITTLE THING is big and wide and will leave you thinking about how small acts of kindness, expressed to the tiniest of creatures, can have giant impacts.
