Is the movie Idiots and Angels available on Netflix, Disney+, Prime or Apple TV+?

At Stream Tracker, we take a look at Bill Plympton’s 2008 hand-drawn oddity Idiots and Angels — a dark, satirical fable about Angel, a selfish rotter who spends his nights at the bar groping the barman’s wife and dealing in weapons, then wakes up with a pair of wings that start doing good deeds against his nature. The film mixes black comedy and surreal imagery as Angel struggles between his baser instincts and the unexpected pull toward redemption, while others try to seize those wings for their own dark plans. If you’re wondering where to watch, availability on Netflix, Disney+, Prime Video and AppleTV+ varies by country and changes often — check Stream Tracker for the latest platform links in your region. Plympton’s film drew attention on the festival circuit for its distinctive animation and tone, and this article explains where Idiots and Angels can be streamed and what to expect before you press play.

Synopsis

Angel is a selfish, lecherous small-time crook who spends his nights at a neighborhood tavern, bothering the bartender’s wife and peddling illegal weapons. One morning he wakes to find a startling pair of wings sprouting from his back—wings that seem to steer him toward acts of kindness and protection, in direct contradiction to his cruel instincts. As news of the miraculous appendages spreads, sinister forces set their sights on him, intent on seizing the wings for their own dark schemes. Thrust into a battle he never sought, Angel must fight to keep the wings and reckon with the unexpected humanity they force him to show.
