A chicken dreams of flight. When the flock learns what awaits them, the wings they once laughed at become their chance to escape.
À propos du film
Life in the chicken coop follows a routine of feeding, laying eggs and waiting to be picked. One small yellow chicken keeps looking up at the sky. It makes wings from twigs, newspaper and string, only to fall again and again while the others laugh. When the flock discovers what happens to the chickens that are taken away, the others help build a glider. The little chicken flies out through the high window. The sky it has dreamed about is finally within reach, but it turns back toward the latch on the outside of the coop.
