2001 · Jacques Perrin

A cinematic portrait of migratory birds as they embark on seasonal odysseys between temperate breeding grounds and tropical latitudes near the equator, covering thousands of miles and steering by celestial cues and instinct. These relentless journeys are essential to the birds’ survival, driven by the need for milder climates and reliable food supplies; along the way they face daunting obstacles—vast ocean crossings, predators, illness and injury—that push their endurance to the limit. Though departures and flights are often communal, once they arrive birds break into smaller family groups to nest and recuperate. The film shows how these movements ripple across the globe: every continent hosts migratory species at least part of the year, connecting distant ecosystems through a shared cycle of travel.

With Philippe Labro and Jacques Perrin
