Enjoy your Wednesday evening as we share some scene stills from 9Raft’s “When a Bird Builds a Nest.”

Starring John Francis Balbuena and Alyssa Mae Reyes, this film resonates with displaced children in the aftermath of war. As little birds need a nest as a shelter for love and security, so do the children of our nation need a place they can call "home.”
