Based on the book by R.J. Palacio, the best-selling author of the Wonder series, this uplifting movie shows how one act of kindness can live on forever. When Julian is expelled from school for bullying, he is visited by Grandmère (Helen Mirren) from Paris and is transformed by her remarkable story of compassion and courage. As a girl in Nazi-occupied France, the young Grandmère goes into hiding with the help of a schoolmate, a young man who risks everything to give her the chance to survive. White Bird, like Wonder before it, is an emotional story about the ways that even in the most harrowing circumstances, empathy for others can make every difference in the world.
White Bird is now available to stream on several streaming services. Watch the official trailer here.
