A relaxed, sensory performance about two sisters who find an injured bird in their backyard and decide to heal it. Through the world of imagination, they sail by boat to Africa, encounter frightening animals and wise snails, bring down the rain, and fly with wings into the sky. Along their journey, they rediscover themselves and each other. A performance by two actresses and a puppet, exploring the delicate relationships between siblings, imagination, and the power of compassion.
