City Tree (1973)

Comments on the problems of living in a city environment with the sad story of the mistreatment of a tree which is struggling to live on a city street. For elementary grades. A graphic presentation of a bedraggled city tree, who tells, inverse, in a self-pitying but endearing manner, how difficult life is to a tree surrounded by concrete. Points up the carelessness, ignorance and indifference of pedestrians and motorists in the tree’s struggle to stay alive. Wry comments on the urban ecology make this one for all ages to view. 16mm
