It’s the near future and nature has turned against mankind. Swarms of birds have gathered, joining forces to destroy and devour any human they manage to catch. In an abandoned New England lake house, strangers Nat and Diane try to survive, listening to and learning the birds’ habits and patterns, along with each others’ secrets. Matters are complicated by the man across the lake who may be watching them, and the arrival of a young woman named Julia whose intentions may not be as they seem. Inspired by the same story, and just as chilling as the classic Hitchcock film, The Birds asks us how we would choose to write our own story, and just what we’d be willing to do to survive.
