Film showcase Hello World (Bonjour le Monde) by Anne

Ten animal species thrive along a river, each adapting uniquely to its surroundings. The long-eared owl masters the night, while the great-crested grebe vanishes into its watery dance. The kingfisher seeks the sun, and the European pond turtle drifts timelessly. The Irish bat listens to the evening symphony, as the European beaver tirelessly builds riverbanks. The fire salamander explores both land and water, and the great bittern dreams of capturing the moon. The pike aspires to grow massive for grand adventures, while the emperor dragonfly, armored by the sun, soars like a warrior. Together, they shout, “Hello, world!”
