The Ark and the Deluge

1993 · 100 min · ★ 9.0 · Documentary

A naturalist fiction film organized around one of the most essential principles of life, "water", it is not an animal documentary but a fresco of nature. The elements, precipitations, minerals, landscapes, plants and animals are apprehended without hierarchy while water constitutes the main protagonist of the film. Epic, poetic, lyrical sometimes, water reveals the splendor of certain landscapes, the strangeness of the behavior.

Directed by François Bel
