Director‘s Statement:
Some people may find two funny pigeons in this film. But in some people’s eyes, they see themselves. This one-take animal documentary shows how a grey wild slim pigeon uses tricks to steal food and water. And the white household fat pigeon fight for defending. In fact, the food and water are abundant for both of them. But no one is willing to step back. The invader wants more. The defender refuses to give even a drop of water. Only observers shake their heads gently, and show sympathy to these two short-sighted pigeons, who are looking for troubles by themselves. But beyond the screen, do we act like pigeons? And whether there are invisible observers watching us? Maybe we are too greedy and selfish and keep making troubles caused by ourselves.
