Sundance 2024: Caring for Hummingbirds in ‘Every Little Thing’ Doc

There is an especially delightful, humble, rejuvenating documentary film that recently premiered at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival that is all about hummingbirds. Yes, it’s focused on these remarkably small birds (the smallest!) that buzz around mainly during summer season. It’s a supremely nourishing film about hummingbirds and a woman in Los Angeles who takes care of and helps save many of them. Every Little Thing is the latest fantastic doc creation from Australian filmmaker Sally Aitken (Getting Frank Gehry, Nolan – The Man and the Myth, Hot Potato: The Story of the Wiggles). Some might remember her other acclaimed doc titled Playing with Sharks: The Valerie Taylor Story, which premiered during the online-only Sundance 2021 a few years ago. She’s back again at Sundance with the film Every Little Thing, and it’s another special, one-of-a-kind documentary experience about animals living with us on this planet that we really need to take a closer look at.
