Description was written before the event
Where she was born, she will no longer tolerate anything - so she sets out into the world. But life outside is no picnic. After a few wild adventures, she finally finds what others of her kind only dream of: love and a new home. Yet she doesn't know that right next to her freshly laid eggs, a smuggler's den is about to hatch.
Hungarian provocateur György Pálfi (Taxidermia, Final Cut) tells through the eyes of his feathered protagonist a tragicomic parable about freedom, resistance to the system, and the longing for motherhood. This original dark comedy with an unexpected star won an Honourable Mention at the Toronto Film Festival.
