Bestiaire

A captivating cinematic exploration of observation and perception, "Bestiaire" presents a visually stunning and wordless documentary that delves into the intricate relationship between humans and animals. Filmed at Parc Safari in Quebec, the film employs fixed-camera images to create a sense of intimacy with its subjects, blurring the lines between observer and observed. As we gaze upon the animals, they too observe us, evoking the ancient Hindu concept of "darshan" - a mutual beholding that initiates a shift in consciousness.
