Zugvögel

A call for tolerance, love and charity.

Since they are migrant birds, Luka’s new friends have to journey on in autumn. But Oleg, Madame Petrova and Paulinchen don’t want to leave. They want to experience winter and go to school. But where to stay? Luckily, there’s Miss Lorenz with her big heart, caring for those who don’t know where to go. In wonderful, nuanced and yet powerful pictures Michael Roher tells a story painfully present these days: the story of a family being displaced from their home and settling down somewhere else under difficult conditions. A call for tolerance.
