description: A long-empty birdcage takes a chance and leaves behind its attic home to find a bird to keep. Out in the world the cage encounters many birds and offers shelter to each of them. One by one they refuse explaining why they belong elsewhere. The cage feels lonelier than ever  until the cage in search of a bird finds a bird in search of a cage.Based on an aphorism by Franz Kafka.
