When birds use their wings to realize dreams, soaring in a sky that we can never reach on our own, what kind of admiration should humanity bestow upon them? "The migration of birds is a story about commitment, a commitment to return." Jacques Perrin leads us on a journey of birds and dreams with this statement. Undoubtedly, [The Migratory Birds] directly defines the standard of "truth acquisition" for top-level documentaries – with over 600 participants, filmed over more than three years, costing more than 40 million USD, and covering over 50 countries and regions globally, capturing more than 460 kilometers of footage. This film, featuring 17 of the world's best pilots and two scientific expedition teams, caused a sensation upon its release. In just three weeks, over 2.5 million French people flocked to theaters to witness the unwavering spirit of the trumpeter swan crossing 1200 kilometers, the sandhill cranes seeking a way out amidst fierce sandstorms, and the penguins battling against the sea crows in the icy wilderness… Despite the failures and discouragements, the wooden brains on the edge of cliffs, and the prying eyes of human greed. In addition to simple narration, the entire film is devoid of words. The protagonists of the film are endearing, diverse birds. They take us over the sea, across the snowfields, and past the mountains; they depict flight, perseverance, affection, and life through the vibrations of their wings.
