The story begins in an eagle’s nest. The first-born chick pushes his weaker brother to a certain death on the forest floor. But fate intervenes, and the chick is found by Lukas, a young boy whose father blames him for his mother’s death. Naming him Abel, Lukas cares for the creature in secret, finding a love and companionship denied to him at home. But, when the day comes to release Abel back into the wild, will Lukas find his own release into a new life?
