Remembering Flaco the Owl

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Jul 29

It's been over two years since Flaco, the owl who escaped from the Central Park Zoo and captured New Yorkers hearts, died after colliding with a building on the Upper West Side. A new documentary, "Wild Inside," revisits Flaco's story, and sources footage from New York birders who were lucky enough to capture a Flaco sighting. Director Penny Lane discusses her film, "Wild Inside" which premieres July 29th in Central Park with a free outdoor screening before opening at the IFC Center on July 31st.
