To Fly

In a remote village, a girl shares a deep bond with her duck. When she learns it is in danger, she flees into the mountains, where she meets a mysterious boy who has the ability to hear distant sounds. He takes her to a mystical place called Kenareh, where she witnesses the duck take flight. A moment of both liberation and transformation.
