'A bird's-eye-view of what it's like to be a British robin....'
This Christmas the robin will be thrusting out his red breast from greetings cards, and cocking a friendly eye from the windowsill at the festive events in thousands of households... In this international award-winning film, Bernard Cribbins interprets a year in the life of the robin with a rare touch of charm and humour, as the robin stakes out his territory, avoids the local cat. makes a profitable 'deal' with the gardener, chats up the birds, and raises a family in the hedgerow.
