Description

Twenty-two-year-old Marja meets Greg at a home party in Finland on a rainy September evening in 2016. A year later, she arrives in Chicago with a K-1 fiance visa and a dream of happiness. Her dream turns quickly into a nightmare when she finds herself all alone and scared in a strange city after her new husband has abandoned her. While she waits to file for a divorce, she meets Miguel through her new friend Jimena and falls in love. As the divorce becomes a reality, Marja faces a difficult decision: feeling torn between her love for Miguel and her wish to feel at home, Marja must decide whether she wants to return to Finland or fight for a chance to stay.

"When Birds Take Flight" explores the often hidden reality behind immigration and international love, and the power of one decision to change our lives forever.
