A boy buys a canary to enjoy its singing, but the bird does not sing. He then tries various methods sold to him by a pet store clerk to get it to sing.

À La Carte follows a man immersed in a routine defined by isolation and increasingly uncomfortable relationships with those around him. Amidst everyday situations that gradually take on a strange quality, the short film explores loneliness, desire, and the challenges of human connection, shifting between the real and the absurd.
