A contemporary political allegory of power, to remind us of the dangers of following a dictator and surrendering your freedom.
Life is simple for the pigeons. They have no desire to contemplate their future or take control of it. Free from responsibility, they are all too willing to submit to a strong authority. This is precisely what a cruel and power-hungry crow was waiting for—a perfect opportunity to wield his natural talents as a tyrant. The crow enforces law and order, but also terror and arbitrary rules. Everyone seems to accept this situation—or maybe, they are too scared to resist. Until an idealistic seagull steps in, determined to challenge the system through debate and free elections.
Marc Chalvin was born in Paris. He began working as a professional illustrator in 1990, and since then his work has appeared in various widespread newspapers and periodicals. He does artwork for media and advertising as well. He has published several books based on everyday life in the workplace Le Modele M, Les Profs, La Biotechnologie Vous Facilite la Vie, and Reproduction Interdite. And he published his first comic book Rien que de l’Amour in 2003.
