(Central News Agency reporter Wang Hsin-yi, Taipei, May 4th) The documentary 'Fly, Crested Serpent Eagle' was filmed over 12 years by bird documentary director Liang Chieh-te, with Wu Nien-jen once again serving as narrator. Wu Nien-jen admired Liang Chieh-te's tireless effort in filming, and also humorously mocked himself, saying that after watching the film, his wife joked that if it were him filming, he might be too out of shape to climb the mountains.
Besides documenting the lifestyle of the Crested Serpent Eagle, 'Fly, Crested Serpent Eagle' also explores the balance between ecology and cultural preservation. Following 'Fly, Eagle of Freedom' and 'Guard the Black-faced Spoonbill,' Wu Nien-jen once again collaborated with Liang Chieh-te. He admitted that he rarely came into contact with bird information unless it was for narration. "This time it's the Crested Serpent Eagle, but every time I narrate, I say 'Panda,' because it feels more familiar. The Crested Serpent Eagle is too unfamiliar to me."
Liang Chieh-te climbed mountains and ventured into the sea for filming. Wu Nien-jen chuckled, saying his wife, after watching the film, saw the director climbing mountains and having to wait for long periods to film, constantly lamenting the difficulty of filming. "Then she told me: if it were you, you'd probably be done for at the bottom of the mountain."
'Fly, Crested Serpent Eagle' will be released nationwide on the 15th. (Editor: Chang Ming-kun) 1150504
