Synopsis: Fagin is the bad bird of an otherwise idyllic forest. He assaults the nest of two wrens and destroys all their eggs except one that, when hatched, is adopted by an owl. A counter-offensive against Fagin is launched with help enlisted from a seagull named Armstrong, two nice mice and a sparrow. There is romance, too, and a jazzy score goes with this animated ornithology extravaganza.
Jannik Hastrup: Jannik Hastrup (1941), screenwriter, director and producer, is considered a master of animated film. He has made more than 60 short animated films, of which Benny's Bathtub (Benny's Badekar, 1970) and Cirkeline (1967-1971) are film classics. Some of his feature films have also been hits with audiences and award-winning, e.g., War of the Birds (Fuglekrigen i Kanofleskoven, 1990) and The Boy Who Wanted to be a Bear (Drengen der ville gore det umulige, 2003).
