The Bird Woman

Bird Woman uncovers a secret that will mark every member of the family.

The world of birds has completely consumed her, becoming her obsession… Bird Woman Mariana Černá heals their bodies in her rescue centre, which she understands – however, she understands people much less. A loner, Mari, immersed in her feathered world, also has her secrets. She would prefer to keep quiet about them, to let them slowly die in her mind. But… Her twenty-five-year-old son Jonáš begins to open up the corners of his mother's soul when he decides to find the biological father of his ten-year-old sister, Bohdanka. However, he has such a dark past behind him that even Jonáš is taken aback. And it is the past of Leonard Franc that ultimately marks every member of the family.

But at the end of that journey, no one is the same as they were at the beginning; everyone carries on their shoulders the weight of a secret they themselves uncovered either by staying silent or by talking too much…
