Yellowbird

Yellowbird (2014) is a French animated family adventure you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Christian De Vita. A small bird named Yellowbird has spent his entire life in the safety of a ruined house — too uncertain of himself to fly anywhere.

When the flock's annual migration to Africa gets underway, Yellowbird ends up inside it. Then the only bird who knew the route is gone, and the reluctant homebody is suddenly in charge of the whole group. The voice cast goes well beyond animated-film standards: Seth Green, Dakota Fanning, Christine Baranski, Danny Glover, Elliot Gould and the late Christopher Lee. For a story about self-doubt and finding your place among others, it holds together with quiet warmth. Stream Yellowbird online on iFILM.
