Pica Pica

In Pica Pica Kristersson invites the viewer to be enthralled for an hour and a half by the vicissitudes of magpie life Opposing himself to the current nature films that tend to highly compress time in order to end up with a concentrated sequence of actionelements Kristersson leaves rhythm and tempo almost completely up to the magpies themselves With great integrity he filmed the daily social and emotional life of a species of birds that has many points of contact with human life Thus the movie offers us the oppurtunity to view our own everyday existence through other eyes from a world right above our heads but yet so far away
