SYNOPSIS
A philosophical observation exploring the idea of cyclic time and the associations between flying and guilt.
We follow the journey through the eyes of the protagonist, where passive viewing is reminiscent of a witness in the story. The death of a pigeon raises many questions about our collective global histories. The negotiation between the witness, victim and the perpetrator is seen as a continuous ripple, where an image of the past is thought in today's time and in a moment in the future. Amongst this all, the film questions the need for action.

a bird flies, a stone is thrown.
The good thing about pictures is that they never truly are what they depict. In fact, the image creates a distance - between you and the dead underneath the glass facades.

Glass windows kill eighteen million five thousand and seventy-two birds every year, in Germany alone.
Did you hear how once in the US three million birds just fell dead from the sky?
Why it suddenly rained birds no one can say.
