Plot summary

What is The Painted Bird plot?

Here is a plot summary for "The Painted Bird" Movie.

In an unidentified area of war-torn Eastern Europe, a young boy is sent by his parents to live in safety with his aunt. She dies and he sets off on a journey to return home. His adventures are a series of horrific encounters with ignorance, exploitation, and depravity. In the first village he reaches an old healer who exploits him. He is next taken in by a miller and his wife, who is one of the rare people he encounters who treat him kindly. After the miller gouges out the eyes of a younger man seen exchanging glances with his wife, the boy runs off. He meets Lekh (Lech Dyblik), a bird breeder who treats him well. But Lekh has sex with a wild woman whom local village women brutally rape, after which Lekh hangs himself. The boy leaves.
The boy finds a tame horse with a broken leg and takes it to the next village, where a villager kills it. The villagers then seize the boy and, as an act of appeasement, deliver him to the Germans, identifying him as a Jew. The German soldier tasked with executing the boy releases him. Later caught by SS guards who bring him to a local town, he is saved from execution when he cleans the shoes of a German officer. A local priest then takes him in, but soon arranges for him to lodge with a local, who proves to be a pedophile named Garbos. The boy causes Garbos' gruesome death. After the well-meaning priest dies, his replacement has no use for him and he is run out of the town.
He is then taken in by Labina (Julia Valentova). When her elderly husband dies, she molests him though he is too young to perform sexually. After he sees her having sex with a goat, he kills the animal and tosses its head through the window of Labina's house and then runs away once more.
