The migration of birds is a long-known work. I finally watched it today, and was completely shocked. I feel that this is a documentary that is not a documentary, during which a lot of the director's intentions are interspersed, from the process of birds flying, to encountering threats from humans and other animals during the migration process. On the one hand, it expresses the theme of the traditional human threat to natural development, and on the other hand, it expresses the mission of the animal itself, the habits and life of the animal. And convey to the viewer the spirit of returning to nature. When the birds pass through the human city, we will realize how disharmonious our existence is with nature. When human beings gradually adapt to the convenience brought by technology, do they take into account the improvement of human beings? With the continuous updating of machines, how much has human beings improved, both physically and mentally? Do we still have the courage like birds to challenge ourselves for survival? Each generation fulfills a promise that has been made by the birth of a population of its own.
It is worth mentioning that the soundtrack of this film is really strong. It is rare to see such a combination of music and beautiful pictures, let alone a documentary. It can be shocking and can express the hardships of migration and the bravery of birds.

    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.

    What a nice view! The clear accompaniment of children's voices seems to be able to fly. Without a word, just watch them fly, over rivers, seas, deserts, past Farmhouse Bridges, factories, and finally back to where they were born. They fly through the sky without leaving a trace, but remain in the hearts of poets and children forever. So, my dears, how happy I am to hear you call me little bird.
