France 2 Premieres ‘Voir l’automne,’ a Yann Arthus‑Bertrand–Produced Ode to Autumn

The 97‑minute documentary recasts the season as biologically vital through ethical wildlife filmmaking with immersive sound.

Overview

  • The film airs tonight at 21:10 on France 2 and is available on France.tv.
  • Written by naturalist Rémi Dupouy and co‑written/directed by Jérémy Frey, it marks Yann Arthus‑Bertrand’s first production he did not direct.
  • Shot over roughly 60 days from September to December 2024, the shoot spans metropolitan regions and overseas territories, including a focus on Guadeloupe’s mangrove.
  • The team emphasizes non‑intrusive methods, capturing wildlife without baiting, feeding, or artificial staging, and folds a making‑of into the narrative.
  • A dozen regional profiles illustrate human–nature cohabitation, with the filmmakers seeking to move past stereotyped divides such as ecologist versus hunter.
