The Man Who Planted Trees

Here is something that I bookmarked December 6th of last year and never got around to watching. Such a terrible way to miss out on something and random experiences; I was probably studying for a final or something. I passed the final, but I missed out on this excellent film.

It is a Oscar-winning animated short film about a man who plants trees. A single soul and human. And how he causes a world of changes. The film’s soft animation fades from screen to screen and the music and sound effects are very warming. It also goes off into small 10 second tangential explosions of thought about creating something, God, isolation, happiness, passion, and so on.

It’s only 30 minutes long, so give it a watch when you get a chance!
