Synopsis

Birdsong softens the crowded sorrow at a funeral, where a girl, bewildered, stands amongst the ritual's confusion. Filled with soft strokes and dreamy pencil textures, The Singing of Birds and What is Drifting Away weaves a delicate tapestry of childhood reminiscences and a melancholy so tender.
