Passerine in Time exists in a space where two creatures and two distinct worlds collide; it is a study of the gestural encounter between the hand of man and the birds that land in it. The film investigates haptic encounters between man and bird in which the hand symbolises man’s desire for knowledge of something other as it repeatedly captures, inspects, measures, bands and logs migratory birds before they are returned to the wild.
