THE BATTLE FOR THE BIRDS, IN THE SKIES OF ISRAEL

VERSION FRANÇAISE

synopsis

In the Jordan Rift Valley, men have been at war for more than  a half century. This human tragedy has led to an unprecedented ecological tragedy, causing the death of a billion migratory birds that used this crossing between Europe and Africa.

Against all odds and despite the persistent turmoil in this region, Israelis have taken action to save biodiversity. Today, these men and women are fighting to protect the birds and are successfully restoring the flyway of the great migration in the valley, one of the most wonderful natural events in the world.
