Desperate and in anguish, she is running to prevent an impending tragedy. Her nine year old brother, Charlie stands on the edge, motionless. As she approaches, he spreads his arms and calmly steps off. During the investigation into Charlie's death, the unconventional relationship between Katie and Charlie is explored through a series of flashbacks. Charlie's daily struggles with over stimulation of the senses caused him huge discomfort and suffering and his fascination with birds proves to be his escape from a world he couldn't be comfortable in. That morning Charlie was finding home life exceptionally difficult.
