Willy the Sparrow
Vili, a veréb
1989 · 1h 16m · Animation, Family, Fantasy · Hungary
What would it feel like to be a bird and fly over the trees and housetops?
Vili fakes illness so he doesn't have to take a math test. Instead, he starts shooting at sparrows from the window with an air rifle. The kindly old lady who feeds the birds turns out to be a real-life fairy who tries to turn Vili into a good boy.
