Birds of Paradise (2014)

In a world that exists just seven feet above our heads, amidst the urban symphony of city birds, flutters Jack, an ordinary sparrow who yearns for a life more vibrant, more exotic than his humble grey feathers can afford. A chance incident with a splash of colorful paint miraculously transforms his appearance, turning him into the exotic bird of his dreams. Unbeknownst to him, this rainbow plumage doesn't just bring him the admiration he craves, but also thrusts him into a whirlwind of adventure, danger, and a case of mistaken identity. Simultaneously, the beautiful canary Aurora, known by her cage name Feifi, escapes the gilded prison of her network tycoon owner, Mr. Puertas. As she tastes freedom for the first time, she struggles to adapt to the life of an ordinary bird in a world bursting with newfound possibilities. When Jack and Aurora's paths cross, their lives intertwine inextricably. Together, with their motley crew of quirky friends - Larry (or Libia) the savvy pigeon, Pete (or Pipo) the hyperactive hummingbird, and Claire (or Clarita) the wise bat - they embark on a thrilling journey that tests their wit, courage, and spirit. As they navigate through a world fraught with challenges, including a bumbling cat, eccentric Southern Lapwings, and the relentless pursuit of Mr. Puertas, Jack and Aurora must learn to embrace their true selves. Through trials and tribulations, they discover that freedom isn't just about escaping cages or changing appearances, but about being true to who you are inside. Their story is a vibrant testament to the power of identity, friendship, and the unyielding spirit of being truly free.
