Siberia : a project by Luc Jacquet

After that, we will travel to Primorsky Krai , an area where two seemingly opposing natural environments meet to form an ecosystemwhich has no equivalent anywhere else in the world. Our crews will follow the trails and rivers in the footsteps of the explorers who discovered this unique region where Northern species like the Snowy owl or the Eurasian lynx cohabit with those more typical of Southern Asia, like the Asian black bear or the Japanese maple tree. Above all perhaps, it is the realm of the Amur leopard and the Siberian tiger , two elusive inhabitants of these dense forests and who command the natural respect of anyone venturing into this area. We will follow their tracks and take time to highlight the life and habits of these apex predators.

We will travel over four thousand kilometres, from the Arctic down to the Sea of Japan, to showcase the natural sanctuaries of the Russian Far East . Filming will begin up North in August, and will continue as we gradually move southwards through the continent, always trying to keep up with the arrival of Autumn, until we finally reach the shores of the Sea of Japan in October. Everything we film will be used to produce a series of works and events.
