		Amy's inventor dad comes out with the idea to lead the wild geese using a home-made plane, and since they only seem to follow Amy, she has to be the one flying the plane; all way from Ontario to Florida.
		Somehow, the the film manages to mesh the mood of the story appropriately with the individual features of each of the season; the gloom and discovery in spring, the lively activity of flight training in the summer, final and crucial preparations in autumn and finally concluding with the warm summer of Florida.
		Although the geese provide the most of the life in FLY AWAY HOME, ultimately, it is the protagonists' (Amy and Daniels) progress in coming to terms with their emotional imbalance and acceptance to a fresh start of life that matters the most.

		The conquest of Ireland was followed by the Flight of the Wild Geese, in which much of the Irish aristocracy fled to other Catholic countries (notably France and Spain) and was largely forgotten at home.
