In this film every person (or character) says that he or she is a certain bird, but this may not be true after all, because every one of them in the meantime keeps on being, or appearing to be, a person. And, meanwhile, there is someone who is searching for real birds the kind that fly. Where have they all gone?

Elettra is adapted from the tragedy of Sophocles and played by non-professional actors of Casalborgone.
