La Forêt is honoring Indigenous knowledge and reminding us of our deep connection to forests.
Produced in partnership with Everland, the video features collaborations with Ainu singer, Yoko Tomikawa (Ainus are the first nation of Japan) and Shishi Odori rituals from Tono.
Shishi Odori is a folk ritual in which dancers wear intricate masks that are composites of animals like deer, lions, and dragons. This ancient performance art, which originated four centuries ago, has evolved from a hunters’ ritual honoring the spirits of animals into a profound expression of respect for all living beings, including human spirits.
Accompanied by the rhythmic beats of taiko drums and the melodic strains of flutes, the dancers perform at village festivals during the summer and fall. In Shishi Odori, the sacred beast often overpowers the human dancer, symbolizing a respectful acknowledgment of nature’s power.
La Forêt explores humanity’s relationship with nature and the urgent need to preserve vital ecosystems.

Original lyrics in Japanese and French:
子供の頃遊んでた森に置いてきた何かを
探しにまた行きたくて
迷うはずのない鳥のあとを追いかけてみたら
ないよ　ないよ　森がないよ
ないよ何もないよ
la forêt, la forêt, la forêt…
si tu as soif, j'ai soif
si tu brûles, je brûle
Si tu tombes …
一度なくなった森二度と会える事はできない
倒れる木の叫び声　あなたの声　私の声
聴こえる
la forêt, la forêt, la forêt …
Mon sang coule dans tes racines ta seve dans mes veines
Nous déraison tu suis les saisons
j’ai mon langage tu as le tien mes anciens le connaissait bien
tu connais notre histoire tu as gardé nos secret…
la forêt, la forêt, la forêt …
