Such a Long March is an intriguing dive into the life cycle of Chinese crabs, showcasing their accidental introduction to Europe over a century ago. The documentary takes us on this natural journey, examining the crabs' migration from the North Sea to the rivers of Flanders. It’s got this contemplative pacing, letting moments breathe and allowing us to reflect on nature's resilience and fragility. The cinematography captures both serene waters and the chaotic urban riverside, making you appreciate the beauty and struggle of these creatures. There’s a slight sense of melancholy woven throughout, especially in how the film portrays the crabs’ return to the sea to complete their cycle.
