To See the Sky (2024)

To See the Sky tells the story of ornithologist Lorenzo Sympson and his life-long relationship with the Andean condor. Sympson’s life history is complex and seldom spoken of, from growing up on Thoroughbred ranches in some of the wealthiest regions of Argentina, to being exiled from his home country for over a decade by a political dictatorship; but despite these complexities, one constant has been his love for nature. Sympson began studying the Andean condor almost by accident, but found a deep curiosity for the way that they fly which would ultimately shape the rest of his life. What is considered to be the largest flying bird on Earth, the Andean condor rarely flaps its wings, meaning it relies on its knowledge of rising and falling air to navigate the vast landscape in which it resides. Sympson’s life work has attempted to understand this knowledge and how exactly it is acquired, while gathering decades of baseline information on the relatively unexplored species along the way. An exciting character-driven story with its roots in conservation, To See the Sky promises a cinematic adventure through one of the world’s most cherished places.
