Nicole Fuentes

When filmmaker Nathan Silver and his wife Nicole Fuentes moved halfway around the world, Nathan’s parents took up birdwatching and began sending them audio recordings from their bird identifying app. It wasn’t so much the birds you can hear on the recordings but discussions about the birds, life in the United States, and aging as a couple. From their new home in France, Nathan and Nicole began pairing these recordings with footage of the birds and life around them.

When director Nathan Silver cuts his mother's scenes from one of his movies, her disappointment goes beyond creative differences. In this new documentary series, they try to repair their relationship.
