Let Them Chirp Awhile

In the restless rhythm of New York City, a young screenwriter wanders the streets that pulse with ambition and uncertainty. Bobby carries a notebook full of half‑finished ideas, the most outlandish of which imagines a chorus of chatty pigeons delivering the moral of his story. The city itself feels like a character—a collage of cafés, cramped apartments, and endless billboard promises—providing both inspiration and a relentless whisper that something better should be happening right now.

When a casual favor turns into the unexpected responsibility of caring for a friend’s dog, Bobby sees a chance to prove himself, not just to the friend but to the part of himself that still believes he can be trusted with something important. At the same time, his relationship with a budding musician, Scott, offers a fragile sanctuary where creative doubts are aired over coffee and late‑night jam sessions. Their conversations drift between humor and melancholy, hinting at a deeper bond forged by shared insecurities and the pressure to make a mark before the city’s lights dim.

Surrounding them is a circle of peers who embody the same restless yearning—a playwright whose success feels both enviable and inexplicably hollow, and a cohort of artists hustling to translate their passions into something tangible. The tone of the film balances witty banter with the quieter moments of self‑reflection, capturing the uneasy blend of hope and anxiety that defines a generation chasing ambition in a metropolis that never sleeps. As Bobby and Scott navigate these overlapping worlds, the story promises a quirky, heartfelt exploration of identity, friendship, and the stubborn quest to turn a wild idea into a lasting legacy.
