A series of nine programmes featuring natural history films from other countries. Symphony of Magic
Orchids are harlots of the plant world - offering sex to insects in return for the favour of pollination. Doron Hirshberg , a young Israeli naturalist, captures many such intimate moments in the lives of wild orchids which bloom in profusion in the middle eastern countryside.
This, his first film, took seven years to make on Super-8 equipment.
