Three brothers find a dead magpie and peg it to the washing line, foreshadowing tragedy and reminding them of past guilt and trauma. Captain Jesus follows a family's struggle to cope with loss, with the teenage eyes of their mother twenty years earlier shaping her response. Icons, influences, and family histories connect the two narratives as the family heals through the quietness of love and the natural world.

When three brothers find a dead magpie and peg it to the washing line, the resurrection re-enactment becomes a portent of tragedy to come, and a reminder of past guilt and trauma. In Captain Jesus, we see a family struggle to cope as loss rips through their lives; through the teenage eyes of their mother, twenty years earlier, we glimpse the events that shape her response. The icons, influences, and family histories that define faith connect the two narratives as the family gradually heals, thanks to the quietness of love and the natural world.
