Plot: The airport hotel: more often than not the dreary site of a woeful inconvenience—a missed flight, an impediment standing in the way of a destination and the chance to move on with one’s life. But not so for Gary (Josh Charles) and Audrey (Anaïs Demoustier). The principal setting of BIRD PEOPLE, a hotel at Paris’ Charles de Gaulle Airport represents a place of promise and hope and serves as the unlikely establishment that brings these two lost souls together.
Fed up with the stresses of his work and home life, Gary, an American businessman en route to Dubai, views his overnight layover as an opportunity to start fresh in Europe. For Audrey, a Parisian chambermaid, the hotel is her ticket through college and a path away from her humdrum life. As their paths cross nearer in the halls of the hotel, their lives change in a way neither ever could have imagined.
