To be or not to be.

We ourselves may never be able to break the ideals of birds only by admiration. Maybe I understand to some extent why Jacques Behan used To be by your side to make this documentary theme song which is rarely explained in text; I have to admire Nick Cave’s melancholic voice, which is really a perfect match~~Zeng Zhize Long, short if you reduce it~~

Besides, what should people think about the bird's commitment to migration? Are we obsessed? Are we stoic? Are we going to die for our ideals? We are cruelly destroying nature, which is called development; we are cruelly killing each other, which is called freedom, democracy and human rights. What about their rights, who are in the same room with us, and their freedom? They have no right to speak, they express their will and determination in their way. Naturally, there are their laws. Maybe what is waiting for us is not only the "after tomorrow", but also the will to overcome~

    1. You can see the director's intentions only from the soundtrack, not to mention the real shots of every shot. 2. A return is the fulfillment of a promise, the film's careful expression. 3. Literature and art films in documentaries. 4. I long to be a bird that can fly freely, but will I forget the beautiful scenery along the way?

    Adhering to the style of letting the picture tell everything, in the process of migrating day and night, the joys and sorrows of the birds are clear at a glance, and many details are even more wonderful. The footage and soundtrack are excellent, completely moved, thanks to Jacques Behan and his team - 90 minutes, every second of which is condensed.
