 Los migrantes deben abandonar el bosque. Se cruzan fronteras, se hacen sacrificios, se pierden los seres queridos. Se necesita mucho coraje para llegar al final. Por fin termina el viaje y llegan los migrantes. Este es el nuevo lugar. Con contundente sencillez, Migrantes narra el viaje de un grupo de animales que salen de un bosque sin hojas. Hay que cruzar fronteras, hacer sacrificios, dejar atrás a los seres queridos. Watanabe tiene un cuidado extraordinario para mostrar la individualidad y la humanidad de cada migrante, a través de los patrones detallados en su ropa, el cuidado que se tienen unos a otros mientras establecen el campamento, el símbolo del ibis azul que muestra la conexión entre el pasado y el futuro, la vida y la muerte.

 

 

The migrants must leave the forest. Borders are crossed, sacrifices made, loved ones are lost. It takes such courage to reach the end. At last the journey is over and the migrants arrive. This is the new place. With forceful simplicity, Migrants narrates the journey of a group of animals leaving a leafless forest. Borders must be crossed, sacrifices made, loved ones left behind. Watanabe takes extraordinary care to show the individuality and humanity of each migrant―through the detailed patterns on their clothing, their care of each other as they set up camp, the symbol of the blue ibis showing the connection between past and future, life and death.
