BAMBI

Little Bambi was born in spring, in a clearing. He has a beautiful, loving mother; his father is the most important stag in the forest; he has many relatives and friends of every species. Even if man does appear, rifle on his shoulder (and what is this, the animals wondered, a type of arm, a third arm?), Bambi will grow up and learn what he has to do. “You have to run”, ”you have to get up”, “you have to keep moving”.  The effort and the price he must pay are great, but Bambi is a winner by nature. He is ready to become a proper prince.

In truth, the issues raised by Felix Salten’s story are much more pressing.

“Life in the forest is a constant battle for survival. Animals big and small have a common, extremely powerful, enemy: man. Faced with the hunter, rifle in hand, nobody is safe. In the forest, one must always listen carefully, stay on the alert, be ready to run.“ (Ema Stere).
