THE BOY AND THE TREE A tender fairy tale centered on the friendship between a withering and forlorn tree on the sidewalk and a homeless little boy. The film touches in a heartwarming, humane manner issues such as: “Desolation”, “Abandonment”, “Loneliness”, “The Urban Landscape as source of social isolation”, “Nature and how we choose to disregard it” and “Basic survival needs such as hunger and shelter, for all those living on the margins of a society we take for granted”. Based on the original story by Eugene Trivizas Adapted for the screen by Eugene Trivizas and Panagiotis Rappas Directed by Panagiotis Rappas Music by Dimitris Papadimitriou
