2021L’arche et les déluges
François Bel
Claude Rich
A naturalist fiction film organized around one of the most essential principles of life, "water", it is not an animal documentary but a fresco of nature. The elements, precipitations, minerals, landscapes, plants and animals are apprehended without hierarchy while water constitutes the main protagonist of the film. Epic, poetic, lyrical sometimes, water reveals the splendor of certain landscapes, the strangeness of the behavior.
The Ark and the Deluge
Le territoire des autres
Gérard Vienne, Jacqueline Lecompte
This colorful wildlife documentary follows the flight birds and expresses the need for conservation and sanctuaries. Baby seals are shown being clubbed to death for their pelts. The creatures of nature face the biggest enemy in humans who pollute and show callous disregard for the sanctity of wildlife and conservation.
