The Great Migration [La Grande Migration]

Although this film is one of the oldest works in the corpus, produced at the end of the 1990s, it is a great example of how to treat a sensitive subject (migration) with allegorical good humour. The film follows a flock of birds migrating to a warmer climate for the winter. One bird has a hard time making his way in the right direction. The film ends with a hint of frustration that will compel viewers to consider what home means anyway, as the birds find themselves back where they were at the beginning. It is possible to use this film to bring about sensitive discussions of home and belonging.
