ABOUT UNEXPECTED FRIENDSHIP

A young, empty cage, with as yet little idea of the world, wishes for a bird to live in it. One day, a curious bird from a faraway region where there are no cages appears and flies straight into the cage. The old alley cat is delighted at the prospect of an easy meal, without realising just what a dauntless cage and a strong bird are capable of. Freely based on the work of Franz Kafka: an amazing story of how the world is sometimes not at all what it seems and how unexpected alliances can develop into deep friendships if we are only willing to let them.
