Cinemini: Vreemde Vogels
Join the adventure in the skies and fly along with all sorts of curious birds. In the forest, each bird must perch in the tree that matches its colour, while on the water a clever coot comes to the aid of an unlucky sailor. One little bird mistakes a shuttlecock for a friend, and a free bird befriends one kept in a cage. Will these curious birds soon take off together into the wide world?
