  • Files

A man walks into a lush rainforest and starts chopping down a huge kapok tree. Lulled by the heat, he sits down and soon falls asleep. The forest dwellers approach him, each pleading in his ear a reason to keep the tree standing.  Suddenly, the man wakes up, and for the first time notices the beauty all around him.
