About this Event
The French Film Festival UK has joined forces with Dartmouth Films for their release of the stunning documentary Whispers in the Woods (Le Chant des Forêts), directed by Vincent Munier.
CERTIFICATE U
Delving deep into the woodland realms, where lynxes, bears, deer, owls, capercaillies, and other river creatures roam, wildlife photographer and filmmaker Vincent Munier (The Velvet Queen) not only seeks to pay tribute once again to the visual splendour of nature but also to capture the forest’s poetic sounds. The whispers of the woods are echoing the whispers passed from Munier’s father to himself, and now to his own son. This becomes a heartfelt declaration of Munier’s love for his father, intertwining familial bonds with the untamed beauty of the natural world.
It won the Best Documentary César in the 2026 round of the French “Oscars” as well as a César for best sound.
