Synopsis
The documentary is a focused view into the core of game-keeping and hunting passions in its central European form, but also depicts commercial hunting in Africa and Greenland. The heroes of the film are 3 strong characters who have dramatically different opinions about hunting and animal breeding. We see them in situations which reflect their personal – and often very specific – approach to hunting. The montage of these diverse scenes underscores the various opinions on the role of man in nature, his relationship to animals and the way people think about the World in general. The film only works with static shots which remind of paintings of hunting scenes, but also of the static compositions of mounted trophies. The formal cleanness of the scenes forms a contrast with their animal content.
