Caged
Caged is a wordless and witty tale of freedom, ingenuity, and thwarted
ambition. While a bluebird builds her nest in the forest, two eccentric
gentlemen have a more ambitious construction in mind: a vast palatial
building made from birdcages filled with colorful parrots. As the trees
come down and the structure goes up, the bluebird watches the spectacle.
More and more caged birds are consigned to their fate until at last a huge
dome completes the work. However, when the celebrating architects go in
to admire their creation, the little bluebird brings their ambitions crashing
down around them.
