Kauwboy plot
Jojo, a lively 10-year-old boy from a broken home where the father has mood swings and the mother is absent, finds solace in an unexpected friendship with a young jackdaw. He has to hide the jackdaw from his father, because he doesn't like having animals in the house. Jojo secretly calls his mother every day, but does not tell her about the jackdaw. Jojo wants to surprise his mother with the bird on her approaching birthday. Jojo's father definitely does not want to celebrate the birthday of someone who is absent. Because Jojo's father has tantrums, Jojo has to be very careful. Because of the special friendship with the Jackdaw and the adaptability that only children have, Jojo manages to break the wall around his father's heart.

The film clearly outlines the sharp contrast between the boy's friendship with a jackdaw on the one hand and his angular relationship with his father on the other.
A beautiful film with a touching story and excellent acting, also by the Jackdaw.

Nicely made and quite nicely filmed, but the story is a bit sparse.
