Synopsis

A short documentary shot in Warsaw in only one day from a balcony on the 14th of February 2015. Zoliborz is a small, ordinary housing area. On the most romatic day of the year, nothing happens here. Somebody rushes for work, a mother takes her child for a walk. Workers watch birds perched on the roof tops. These birds seem like planning an unexpected attack on people. Somewhere below a little boy is making a bird house out of a plastic bottle. Unaware of pending danger, he will try to bring birds to the people’s world. What is the symbolism of the birds that seem to threaten people? It is all explained in the surprising finale, which shows that a real danger lurks just around the corner.
