Pigeons of Paradise
A Latin jazz singing Pigeon is relentlessly pursued by a surly King Vulture after jailbreaking a Bird of Paradise from the Bronx Zoo.
Synopsis:
ÁNGELA, the street-smart Nuyorican pigeon and lead singer of the Super Coo jazz band, has big dreams. When Phil, the fabulous headlining albino peacock, announces his retirement, a battle of the bands is set to pick a new top act. Ángela and the Band lose out to the flashy new act of Mandi More, a mandarin duck. Looking for an edge, Ángela jailbreaks Larry, a dancing bird of paradise, from the Bronx Zoo, in the hopes that his sweet dance moves will put her on top. Unfortunately, she also freed Col. Reyes, a surly king vulture whom she’s tormented for years, setting off a high-flying, fast-paced adventure from New York City to Ángela’s native home of Puerto Rico.
