Synopsis
“What Birds Say” assembles attempts to mimic bird songs in writing across 64 languages, compiled from dialogues with different native speakers. Side by side, these abstract word sequences from around the world unfold a poetry of their own – clumsy and charming at once, saying less about birds than about our longing to grasp the world in language. A dadaistic chorus of onomatopoeia that may connect us all to singing birds.
