Helen Macdonald trains a goshawk and follows a wild goshawk family at the nest.

Nature documentary. Helen Macdonald trains a goshawk and follows a wild goshawk family at the nest, getting closer than ever before to these fiery eyed birds of prey.

Following the success of Helen Macdonald's bestselling novel of the same name, H is for Hawk: A New Chapter is an intimate and personal journey. After the loss of her father, Helen trained the hardest bird in falconry, a goshawk. The cathartic experience helped her to grieve and now she is ready to do it again, but this time she hopes it will be her wings to somewhere new. In this beautiful and moving film, Helen trains a new bird and follows a wild goshawk family at the nest, getting closer than ever before to these fiery eyed birds of prey.
