Two brothers bound together by affection and responsibility. Jadran is
five years older than Josh and huge enough to be nicknamed Giant. Josh
is younger, and smaller; but his sweet and stubborn brother thinks in a
way that would be more typical of a small child. They are both dealing
with changes to their newly blended, Muslim family. So Josh looks after
Jadran and they both adjust. When the brothers find an injured young
crane, Jadran wants to bring it back to their small apartment and teach
it to fly at any cost. And it turns out the cost is high.
Intensely moving without ever slipping into sentimentality, The Blue
Wings is a warm, love-filled story about fragility, strength, and
brotherhood, in all its complications.
