Every little detail is captured on the grain (and in 4K) in a film where the diverse wildlife around a single oak tree plays out like a daily drama of life and death. An audience favourite, and a huge nature experience. An oak tree is not just a tree. It is an ecosystem in itself, and a home to many different life forms at once. Featuring squirrels, herons, ants, deer and badgers, the French audience favourite ‘Heart of Oak’ unfolds the wonderful natural kingdom where everything is interconnected, from the roots to the crown. Starring an ancient oak tree – and with a camera that captures even the smallest detail – a daily drama of life and death unfolds as animals struggle for food, shelter and survival through the seasons. Shot in 4K, ‘Heart of Oak’ is a serious contender for the great nature experience of the year at the cinema. And by the way, the nearest oak tree is within cycling distance if you want to go and see for yourself after the film.

世界上大多数养猫的人都能通过宠物的眼睛窥见动物的野性。这部纪录片着眼于家猫和它们的野生表亲们，以及它们的祖先之间，在行为上隐约可见的关联。镜头特别勾勒出这些相似之处，并向所谓的“主人们”（如果猫真的认“主人”这一说的话）解释他们在看宠物时究竟看到了些什么。本片利用一系列狮子和猎豹等大猫在狩猎、玩耍和交配的镜头，并将其与家猫在进行类似活动的镜头进行比较，我们将得以深入了解猫之所以为猫的原因。这之后，我们会了解到家猫和大猫们的行为有多相似，我们的“宠物”与地球上一些最野、最危险的生物之间的距离有多近。
