About
Two young men are seriously affected by the Vietnam War. One of them has always been obsessed with birds - but now believes he really is a bird, and has been sent to a mental hospital. Can his friend help him pull through?
Psychiatric wards and the fractured psyches of Vietnam veterans collide in this surreal portrait of post-war trauma. One man attempts to take flight through sheer delusion while his friend desperately fights to keep him grounded.
