A post-industrial fable about birds, self-sacrifice and the struggle to protect what one loves.

Aviana, a birdlike young woman with a mysterious past, lives a life of timeless simplicity in a well-tended garden with only her dutiful old gardener for human company — until a brash young man determined to build his dream home buys the adjoining lot. When Aviana and her new neighbor clash over the felling of a tree planted squarely on the property line, sparks fly.
