Plot
Angel is a selfish, abusive, morally bankrupt man who hangs out at a local bar, berating the other patrons. One day, Angel mysteriously wakes up with a pair of wings on his back. The wings make him do good deeds, contrary to his nature. He tries to rid himself of the wings, but eventually finds himself fighting for those who view his wings as their ticket to fame and fortune.
Characters
Production
According to Bill Plympton, the concept for the film came from the top of his head when asked by an audience member what his next film would be about. Plympton said "it's about an asshole guy who wakes up one morning with wings on his back". Interested in the idea, Plympton built a whole story around it.
After the commercial disappointment of Plympton's last feature, Hair High, he decided to do something different, in style, writing, etc.
The film has no dialogue, as Plympton became more interested in telling a story through staight visuals.
