Wilder Than Wilderness (2018) 6

Czech Republic | 2018 | 81 min.

The first feature film about Czech nature. Thanks to state-of-the-art technology we get to see the fascinating adventures of the animals and plants around us. We get acquainted with an amorous partridge at dawn, with rare squirrels, an Ice pigeon diving into the water, salmon traveling from Czech rivers to the sea and back, and grass snakes in a hunt for fish. We're shown a thrilling expedition to see mouflon, beaver, blue frogs, and dozens of other creatures, some of them maybe even unknown – all right here outside our doors!
