 H Is for Hawk is a 2025 biographical drama film adapted from the award-winning 2014 book of the same name, the memoir of British naturalist Helen Macdonald. Based on a true story, the plot centers on Helen, a 37-year-old woman who spirals downward after the sudden death of her father and makes the unusual decision to tame a goshawk and integrate it into her daily life. While H Is for Hawk has a calm and restrained narrative, it often feels somewhat forced and confusing, as we are left unsure how to feel about the protagonist we have been following. H Is for Hawk begins on an ordinary day in 2007, when Helen Macdonald spends the entire morning birdwatching, specifically observing two goshawks, through the telescope her father gave her. Later, Helen calls her father, Alisdair, and tells him about her adventures, which pleases him, as he loves to experience and hear about any interaction with nature.  Director: Philippa Lowthorpe Writers: Emma Donoghue, Philippa Lowthorpe, Helen...
