"A beautiful, simple tale about one man's love of rare-breed chickens and how that love redeemed him from chronic depression.... funny, heartfelt, and surprisingly moving." Sunday Age, Melbourne

"With a whimsical style reminiscent of Errol Morris (The Fog of War) and Mark Lewis (Cane Toads), writer-director-cinematographer Randall Wood has laid a beauty." Sydney Morning Herald

"Half an hour just doesn't do justice to this unseen world, and the soul-mending solace this young man found clucking within it." The Age, Melbourne

"Every now and then, a show comes along that has a much bigger punch than you could possibly anticipate, and tonight that honour goes to this little gem." TV Week

"It's difficult to imagine a documentary on rare chickens making for enthralling viewing, but it's not hard to get sucked into this one...." Herald Sun, Melbourne
