A little bird wants to join his fellows flying and soaring through the air but there is a problem: he has no wings. Regardless of this he does not give up and this animated short by Hans Holtslag and Frodo Kuipers of Studio Mosquito shows his various (futile) efforts to fly – which it does have to be said are very amusing.

Yet all attempts lead to failure until one of his winged friends decides to help him out.

This animation made as a part of a presentation of a project which tries to improve the connection between education and the field of action in the area of health care for youth and disabled people.

The message that with a just little help that people can do what everyone else does is subtly and without patronage presented here.

Congratulations to all involved.
