The film portrays the misadventure of an old woman obsessed with birds and her son, who thinks he can fly.In a special interview for IndieLisboa Festival, Filipe Abranches explained the idea behind the film:The idea comes from an old comic project made in 1998. However, it was only in 2006 that I found resources to produce a film based on it. The process was very interesting since it allowed me to realize better the differences between the two foundations, one being comic and the other animated film.
