Goose Chase

It’s a warm Summer day somewhere in Maine and three teams of documentarians have gathered to capture the elaborate mating ritual of the rare and mis-named Golden Duck. The bird, which is neither entirely gold-colored nor a duck, has one shot in its lonely life to find a mate, giving the gathered camera crews one chance to capture the waterfowl in action. As an enthusiastic Youtuber, a cheesy hunting reality show, and a prestigious nature series flock to the pond’s edge, we see how the footage they captured tells their stories just as much as duck’s…I mean goose’s?
