A woman learns to live inside a body that no longer feels like her own. Between hospital rooms and imagined spaces, she gathers fragments of memory, care, and small rituals of survival. Words drift between languages; what cannot be said in one tongue finds tenderness in another. Rooted in distance and displacement, Bird Eats Bread reflects on how we remake ourselves after rupture: how to leave without erasing what came before, and how to return to love.
In her second collaboration with Pablo López Sánchez-Matas, Hana Nadira draws on their respective Malaysian and Spanish heritage to explore hunger and belonging, and the delicate work of repair.
