Spur des Falken

This film accompanies falconers with their birds during training, at shows and in the private sphere. For some birds of prey are still the livelihood, almost as it was centuries ago. For others, it's just a hobby.

But for all, a bird that is released into the world and returns without restraint from affection and deep trust again and again to the hand of its owner - this demonstrates a unique connection between wild animal and human.

The use of hunting scenes in which animals are harmed was deliberately avoided.

Thanks to innovative 3D camera systems, spectacular animal and landscape images have been achieved.
