TOUCAN NATION Feature Documentary

North American Premiere

Costa Rican citizens have prided themselves on their symbiotic relationship with the natural world. But then someone senselessly mutilated a beautiful bird, Grecia, who became a beloved national symbol. TOUCAN NATION follows Grecia through his rehabilitation (with a high-tech prosthetic beak) as efforts are made to push the government toward stronger animal welfare laws. — Sarah Bilodeau
