‘The Bird Whisperer’ is based on the Brother’s Grimm fairytale, ‘Jorinde and Joringel.’ Deep in the woods, a witch lived in a castle, during the day she changed herself into an owl and at night took back her human shape. She turned innocent maidens who came near the castle into birds and caged them. One day two lovers, Jorinde and Joringel went for a walk in the forest and were lured by the song of a turtle dove. She turned Jorinde into a nightingale and fixed Joringel to the ground. Once she had carried away the bird, she freed Joringel.
