Deep in the forests of the Vosges, where lynxes, bears, deer, owls, and capercaillies roam, Vincent Munier pays tribute to the visual splendor of nature and captures the poetic sounds of the forest. Thanks to his father Michel, a naturalist, he learned everything there and now it is time to pass this knowledge on to Simon, his son. Three gazes, three generations, one and the same fascination for the untamed beauty of nature.
