Birdpeople
Eduard Erne, Germany, documentary, 92 min., 2004
(German and French with subtitles)
Canadian Premiere
Over four years, twenty biologists, dropouts and adventurers raised the birds in Jacques Perrin Winged Migration. The Birdpeople became birdparents following and “raising” the migratory birds on their transcontinental journey’s. But this fascinating film is about human behaviour and the transformation of those who “imprinted” themselves on the birds. Birdpeople will make you wonder about the human environment the birds had to adjust to in the making of Winged Migration. Was it nature, art, or artifice? – C.T.P
Eduard Erne studied directing at the Mozarteum in Salzburg, Austria. He has worked as an actor and director in Vienna and the TAT (Theater am Turm) alongside Elke Lang and Ulrich Waller. Erne has lived in Frankfurt am Main since 1985.
