Puffling
Online
On an Icelandic island, over the course of one night, we follow teenagers Birta and Selma as they take it upon themselves to counteract humanity's impact on nature; exchanging night-time parties for puffin rescues. A coming-of-age documentary about growing up and making choices, Puffling explores the delicate interplay between wildlife, the environment, and human life.
