BIRD MECHANIC

A sonic ghost story of life in regions plagued by the ceaseless noise of military drones, expressed through three elements of Irish folklore: the pula púca, the wandering ghost with no connection to the larger spirit world representing the drones with their spectral forms of spying and bombing, and the keener and the banshee, who speak of and mourn the dead and the sanctity of grief, being themselves deeply connected to the spirit world. Composed by Owen Kilfeather.
