Two have laid claim to Malena’s heart: Stjepan and Klepetan. The former is the human who found her 27 years ago, her wing broken by a gunshot. The latter is her stork partner, who flies to Africa every year with his flock. Malena cannot fly with him, but every summer, he returns to her, helps care for their hatchlings and teaches them to fly.
Malena spends her winters in a heated cabin Stjepan built for her. He catches fish for her, feeds her, and helps her pad a nest on the cabin’s roof to prepare for Klepetan’s return. Set in a small Croatian village, the tight-knit love triangle caught the locals’ attention and drew in journalists from around the world—all of whom follow the developments with great interest.
