In the distant future, humanity teeters on the brink. Scattered tribes cling to life, watched over by enigmatic beings known as the Mothers.
Some children are crafted in factories, their cells woven from rabbit and dolphin. Others subsist on light and water, like plants rooted to the earth. The hope for survival lies in the intermingling of these diverse beings.
But in this faltering world, can connection, love, reproduction, and evolution endure?
Spanning geological epochs, Under the Eye of the Big Bird offers a breathtaking glimpse into the twilight of our species, and a profound reflection on the essence of what it means to be human.
