Can humans teach birds to rediscover forgotten migratory routes?
In short: Join Christian Moullec as he takes to the skies in a microlite to lead a unique 'school of migration.' This documentary explores an ambitious effort to guide geese back toward ancestral paths and preserve their nomadic heritage.
