On The Bright Side, Louisy and Syl live happily together in the safety of their treehouse until Syl ventures off to be a hero in the far away war-torn Lop Side. Alone for the first time, Louisy falls victim to the whims of tiny creatures at her doorstep. When the two sides collide,impossibilities become real, and both realize the line between right and wrong is not as clear as they thought.
With an army of puppets and a magical wind creating fantastical worlds, Bird House is an upside down fairytale of loyalty, loss and growing up under siege.
