This documentary is a graduation project for a group of students from the Faculty of Media at Beni Suef University, who seek to shed light on the world of birdwatching in Egypt, in a unique experience.
This documentary is the first of its kind in Egypt that deals with and documents the world of birdwatching and those interested in it, amidst adventures that extend across nature, especially in mountainous areas. Egypt, with its natural richness, hosts a variety of resident and migratory birds, creating an ideal environment for birdwatchers and wildlife enthusiasts.
The film seeks to raise awareness of the importance of birds in maintaining ecological balance, highlighting the need to protect them from poaching. It also highlights the crucial role that birds play in supporting the sustainability of ecosystems, indicating that biodiversity is not just a natural phenomenon, but rather a fundamental pillar for the continuity of life.
Through the stories of those working in this field and enthusiasts, the film reflects the passion of these individuals, who dedicate themselves to protecting birds and contributing to preserving the environment. Despite the challenges they may face from society or surrounding circumstances, they continue driven by passion.
The stories in the film are many, and each character offers a unique perspective, but the common thread that unites them is passion. This passion is what motivates them to continue their journey despite the challenges. Ultimately, the film delivers an inspiring message: pursue what you love, even if it is not understood or faces various obstacles.
Just as birds pursue their favorite destinations during their migration journeys, defying the harshness of nature and the dangers they face, these individuals pursue their passion, regardless of the obstacles that stand in their way. Just as birds follow their instincts to search for freedom and safety, birdwatchers continue on their path despite the difficulties, believing that passion is the force that drives them and the birds alike.
Ultimately, the film shows how pursuing passion, whether for humans or birds, is what keeps life going and gives it meaning, despite all the challenges and obstacles that may stand in the way.
