Allow me to explain the premise to this 1989 animated movie. Willy is a little boy who is staying home from school because he's still sick with a flu. Feeling bored, Willy decides to use his imagination. He takes a toy gun and, pretending he's a cowboy, "shoots" at some sparrows. By "shoot" I mean he says "Bang, bang!". But Willy chose the wrong day to pretend to shoot at birds, because sitting on that bench happened to be...the Sparrow Guardian.
She is judge, jury and executioner for her own brand of sparrow justice, and she finds Willy to be guilty. She then breaks into the little boy's house and turns the boy into a sparrow. That is what you get for pretending to shoot at birds.
This movie is full of insane story beats like that, including: Drunk rats trying to sell beer as wisdom elixir. Birds fighting for leadership. The sparrow guardian meowing at a cat in a public park. A bird being turned into a man and forming a romance with the sparrow guardian. If this sounds like your kind of insanity, give this movie a watch...or else the sparrow guardian will come for you.
