Brothers of the Wind is a 2016 Austrian coming of age-drama film directed by Gerardo Olivares and Otmar Penker and starring Jean Reno, Manuel Camacho and Tobias Moretti.
In an ensuing fight with another eagle, the eaglets' father dies when he crashes to the ground.
Meanwhile, forester Danzer (Jean Reno) meets with a boy named Lukas (Manuel Camacho) and his father Keller (Tobias Moretti).
They both live in a new house in the mountains, after the death of Maria (Eva Kuen), mother of Lukas and Keller's wife, as a result of a fire.
Keller, gravely afflicted by the death of his wife, fails to live in harmony and understanding with his son, who takes refuge more and more in nature, avoiding contact with his father.
As a retreat Lukas constantly goes to the remains of his old house, where he often sees the photograph of his deceased mother.
Danzer also meets the eaglet, and decides to help Lukas for the affection he feels for him.
As Lukas stays and reads his family's Bible, he comes across the story of Cain and Abel.
Lukas, remembering his animal friend, later finds a small memorial that he made with a pile of rocks and one of Abel's feathers.
Danzer, who happens to be nearby, scares the wolf away with his rifle and helps Lukas heal.
Lukas says he feels Abel still lives, but Keller tells him he was the dead eagle of the rock slide.
Finally, Abel and a female eagle await the arrival of a new hatch, thus continuing the circle of life.
