Whispers in the Woods 2025
Le chant des forêts
In the forests of Vosges in Eastern France, the home of bears, deer, owls, lynxes and a cavalcade of other creatures, famed wildlife photographer Vincent Munier returns to capture the magic of this untouched natural world as only he can. It was in these forests that he would often come with his father, and on this trip, he brings his son to pass on the importance of protecting this ecosystem.
Following up his acclaimed 2021 feature, Velvet Queen, which focused on the elusive Tibetan Snow Leopard, Whispers in the Woods explores the connection between man and nature, weaving in stories passed down through generations with breathtaking footage of the animal kingdom that moves effortlessly between the humorous and playful to the majestic and ethereal.
A box office hit in France and winner of the illustrious Cesar Award for Best Documentary, enhanced with an immersive score by Warren Ellis and featuring some of the most breathtaking imagery to grace the screen in recent memory. This film transports the audience to a paradise where humans are just visitors and wildlife can exist without threat.
