DOOMAN

 

Standing proudly on top of a hill in Greenock is a metal doocot full of sex-starved pigeons.  

They stir as the pen door of the prized hen is carefully opened and she's primed for battle with a circling rivals doo.  The blonde hen shoots out from the hut soaring high into the sky catching the horny doos eye.  Poised below gripping the wire-pull attached to a net on the roof is the dooman.  He frantically shouts to his hen willing her to return home with the doo but anything can happen when the birds are in the sky.

A funny yet poignant documentary following the dooman and his greatest rival throughout a season of doofleein'.

An epic story of captures, losses and life.
