A metaphor for puberty? Or a lesson about the challenges associated with birdkeeping? It's the former but it still put me off bringing a budgie egg home!

The idea was there and was effective, but the film had quite a few mistakes and not too logical passages. Overall a pity for these reasons.

It's definitely a movie that makes you think. What I saw in it, is that it's a movie about the psychological abuse of a daughter. A mother that wants the perfect life and is putting a lot of stress on her daughter to make her life perfect, to make the mothers life what she couldn't accomplish herself. [spoiler]Apart from her abusive mother, she has to deal with other abusive stuff like the killing of animals (the raven and the dog), attack of her competitive neighbor, the affaire of her mother with another man, and her mother seeming to care more for the mans baby then for her own daughter.[/spoiler] The egg hatching and the creature growing stronger symbolizes the innocent 12 year old girl growing into a 'in her mothers eyes perfect' but mentally broken girl.

A story about false happiness, motherhood and some adolescent disorders that correctly introduces the elements of transformational horror cinema, as in some of David Cronenberg's films. But it also refers to Finnish mythology about the creation of the world from a bird's egg, and the upsetting revelations of the doppelgänger. The mix works, with some disturbing scenes and interesting reflections on the family.

When a bird finds it's way into their living room, the young "Tinja" (Siiri Solalinna) wraps it in a cloth and gives it to her mother - who promptly breaks it's neck! Somewhat distraught by this, the young would-be gymnast is out in the forest later where she discovers an egg. She takes it home, and More
