A modern, well-equipped village hall in Sandleheath
News Posted: 7 April 2026
'H is for Hawk follows Helen (Claire Foy), who, after the sudden death of her father (Brendan Gleeson), loses herself in the memories of their time birding and exploring the natural world together and turns the ancient art of falconry--rooted in European tradition--training a wild goshawk named Mabel to navigate her profound loss. But as she teaches Mabel to hunt and fly free, Helen discovers how deeply she has neglected her own emotions and life. What begins as an act of endurance transforms into an intimate journey of resilience and healing.' Rotten Tomatoes
'Pairing Claire Foy's psychologically raw performance with lush, evocative imagery, H Is for Hawk approaches its tale of grief and acceptance with bruising realism and thoughtful candor.' = Critic review
'Beautiful story of falconry training and the process of grief for those we dearly love. I highly recommend this film. Claire Foy and Brendan Gleeson are always outstanding!!' - Audience review
