Flying Without Borders

From Estonia to Ethiopia, crossing through Ukraine, Turkey and Israel, this film is a remarkable journey on the trail of a young ash crane across 6000 kilometers till its winter resting site. With the help of a GPS tag affixed on the bird, the scientists will trace its behavior and its choices along the way. A rare chance to verify and validate a unique scientific theory.

While the bird will fly over any constraints regarding its needs, we as humans, will ride the same path… on earth. About ten borders to cross, among political turmoils or war zones. With also as many cultures revering the greatest migratory bird of the European continent often seen as a symbol of liberty and peace.
