Murphy Twin is a young English teacher living in Taiwan. He returns home from work one afternoon to see that his girlfriend – and every trace of her – is gone.
Disappeared, like smoke into a dream.
Shiao-Yun, a beautiful young college student, picks up a stranger’s notebook on a train. Little does she know that hours later, her love interest will die.
Life… death… it’s all just fodder for sad love songs anyway, right?
Haunting, sourceless howls call out against cold, lonely nightscapes. Does this have anything to do with homeless wanderer Lao Gou’s dreams merging with reality?
Set against the backdrop of modern-day Taiwan, AND THE BIRDS DO SING is a mystery/thriller charting the mysteries of love and loss. And whether it be in the grip of lonely cities, along desolate beaches, across colossal mountains, or in the belly of a deep, dark wood, it’s undeniable that three separate lives are on a collision course with destiny.
