- Amy (Anna Paquin) is a young teenager when she loses her mother to a car accident. Because of it, she moves in with her father (Jeff Daniels). Amy finds her new life absolutely miserable, until she finds abandoned goose eggs from when the developers tore up the forest behind her home. They soon hatch and Amy becomes their "mother" and takes care of them. Winter quickly arrives, and the geese must go south. But who will show them the way? It is up to Amy and her father to make sure that the young geese find their way, and with the assistance of her father's invention, they do just that.

"Nobody does a better job of putting animals and people in the same movie than Carroll Ballard, and he does it again, humanely as ever, in 'Fly Away Home'"
-
"By refusing to be cheap or insincere, 'Fly Away Home' allows us to enjoy our emotions without feeling we've been criminally manipulated."
