VOLUNTEER PICK MOVIE NIGHT: "WINGED MIGRATION" Thur June 2 @ 7pm
Winged Migration, is a 2001 documentary film directed by Jacques Cluzaud,
Michel Debats and Jacques Perrin, showcasing the immense journeys routinely
made by birds during their migrations.
Dubbed by critics as "gloriously beautiful," the film was shot over the
course of four years on all seven continents. Shot using in-flight cameras,
most of the footage is aerial, and the viewer appears to be flying alongside
birds of successive species, especially Canada geese. They traverse every
kind of weather and landscape, covering vast distances in a flight for
survival. The filmmakers exposed over 590 miles of film to create an
89-minute piece. In one case, two months of filming in one location was
edited down to less than one minute in the final film.
