“Le Peuple migrateur” is Jacques Perrin third animal film, after “Le Peuple singe” and “Microcosmos.” The theme is the beauty of Earth and the animal populations that share it with mankind. Our planet's vulnerability is also evoked – and how we are all responsible for ensuring its preservation. The theme emerges not only through the observation of migratory birds, but through the eyes of the birds themselves. Of all vertebrates, in fact, birds are the only ones to have become the rulers of the skies. Living the ancient dream Icarus, we soar above the world's continental regions, scale high mountain ranges like the Himalayas, glide over the vast Atlantic and Pacific oceans. The world's largest lakes and rivers are so many way-stations for the migrating flocks. In their company, viewers will discover landscapes as startling as they are beautiful because everything is experienced in an entirely different way. In order to guarantee authenticity, many scientists specialized in the behavior of various species have participated in the production. The Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle (Paris), the World Wildlife Foundation and the League for the Protection of Birds/Birdlife International are partners in the project.
