The Tree

The Tree, a captivating film made with the animation technique of paint-on-glass, is a metaphor about the similarities between people's lives and trees. It can also be perceived as a lyrical poem about birth and death, about the flow of time for people and nature, and a parable of parenthood and crossing the boundaries of a single life. There is an extraordinary resonance between the technique employed and the method of narration, giving the film a touch of wistfulness. (Anifilm)
