This enchanting original opera is an environmental fable about moral courage. The story encourages doing what we can for our planet – a fitting call to action for these turbulent times. In the opera, the animals of the forest are inspired to come together by Dukdukdiya, the Hummingbird, to save their beautiful home from a raging fire.
