In this story,
life on the rooftops of New York is
brought into focus.
Light, a pure white homing pigeon leaves his New
York city flock and we follow him on his journey
through New York. He tries
to find food. When it
starts to rain Light flies into a subway train where he is
picked up by a young boy who takes him home.
The
boy’s mother explains that Light’s leg band means he
is a homing pigeon so he is set free, the bird’s instinct
leads him to his owner.
The boy does not forget him and each
time he sees a flock of homing pigeons he
thinks he sees Light.
