A Bird’s Wish
Synopsis
This is the story of a bird who dreams of becoming a mother. She tries to lay an egg, yet her nest remains empty while the chirping of chicks fills the branches around her. A journey of medical tests and fertility treatments pushes her into a physically and emotionally harrowing process, where the longing for motherhood is tested to its limits.
