Directed by Oscar winner Alejandro Iñárritu, Birdman depicts a former movie star, Riggan (Michael Keaton) as he questions his true identity and purpose and risks everything for authenticity via a risky Broadway production.
Riggan—like all of us—battles internal voices that may inspire or cripple and destroy. This highly acclaimed drama/comedy explores the struggle between persona and Self, rationality and inner daimons, existential crisis and transcendence.
