Tatu Hokkanen ringed a nestling robin in Finland in the 1990s. The bird was later found shot dead in Brescia in Northern Italy. Years later, bird conservationists Katia and Paolo are at the forefront of fighting bird poaching in the Province of Brescia, where the bird Tatu had ringed in the 1990s was found. Poachers are still targeting robins. Set in two countries, the story is about conservation work and love for the little birds, transcending national borders.
