剧情介绍
Frank Gardner and Benedict Allen journey through Papua New Guinea. Gardner is pursuing a lifelong dream to see birds of paradise, while Allen is returning to the tribe he abandoned 30 years ago.
Frank is in a wheelchair and has a long held dream to see the birds of paradise in Papua New Guinea. His friend, Benedict, a well traveled adventurer, and a team of people including many local people, attempt to get him through the rugged lands to where the birds can be seen. It not only follows their physical journey but their own emotional journeys as well. This documentary has many honest, self filmed, insights into their individual thoughts about themselves and each other.
经历千幸万苦，当年过半旬的Frank在轮椅终于看到梦幻般的天堂鸟，他落泪了。他想到儿时第一次在卡片上看到这种鸟，父亲在身边弹着的钢琴曲，他问父亲，这些鸟是真的吗？他爸说是的，总有一天你会亲眼看到他们。大半辈子过去了，他终于能如愿以偿，可是说好要一起旅行的父亲却不在了。泪奔。
其中介绍的瑙拉族独特的入族仪式令人印象深刻，感觉出族人对自然的原始崇拜，好想摸一下他们痊愈后的皮肤。
很动人，旅行的意义，人与自然的意义，最后一个伟大探险时代的回眸
