CineWa - The song of the forests

This is an extra film screening in the context of the Week of the Forest. Deep in the forests of the Vosges, where lynxes, bears, deer, owls, and capercaillies roam, the French nature photographer Vincent Munier pays tribute to the visual splendor of nature and captures the poetic sounds of the forest. Thanks to his father Michel, a nature researcher, he learned everything there and now it is time to pass on this knowledge to Simon, his son. Three gazes, three generations, one and the same fascination for the untamed beauty of nature. Over Vincent Munier De Franse nature photographer Vincent Munier is without any doubt one of the most renowned and beloved nature photographers in the world. With his previous documentary The Velvet Queen he not only won prizes at various film festivals, but touched film lovers worldwide through his authenticity and intense love for nature. "I do not photograph what I see, I photograph what I feel", a telling statement by Vincent Munier. Press ''Le chant des forêts works as a family portrait, as an impressionistic nature documentary, as painting with forest sounds and fog banks.'' - De Standaard
