The Ancient Woods, Sengire, trailer

Filmed in one of the last remaining patches of old growth forest in Lithuania, The Ancient Woods is a place where the boundaries of time melt and everything that exists does not wither or age but grows into eternity. A poetic and atypical nature film takes its viewers on the endless journey from the forest thickets to the wolves caves and up to black stork s nest, and then deep into the water to the underwater forest, returning after to the human beings inhabiting the edge of the woodland. There s no commentary, only the rich, almost palpable sounds of the forest and the magical situations captured by the camera. directed by Mindaugas Survila, 2017
