Two years in production, shooting locations in 16 countries, 170 different animal species filmed: the bare statistics of Animals in Love, the first documentary film about seduction animal style: techniques, courtship rituals, curiosities from the animal kingdom. From lions in the savannah, to flamingos, to kangaroos, to bugs. A documentary sui generis that offers an unusual peek into how the birds and the bees really do it.

Director's Notes
«Our discreet and human take on the animal world has often reminded us of the behaviour of men and women. This movie brings back man to Nature. A nature to which he belongs along with other species. Animals in Love and its ecological approach is also a way for us to fight for this urgent and major issue that is the protection of biodiversity and nature».

Endangered by human actions, the diversity of species is crucial to the harmony of the interconnected ecosystems we inhabit: the implications of its loss and why this issue affects more than just those that go extinct.
