Didasarkan atas kisah nyata, cerita pendek ini bercerita tentang dua orang penduduk desa yang ingin mengambil sebatang pohon di tengah hutan untuk ditebang. Satu pihak merasa pohon itu miliknya karena berada di tanah keluarganya. Sedangkan pihak lainnya menganggap pohon itu miliknya karena dulu ayahnya yang menanamnya. Seorang pemburu lokal mencoba untuk campur tangan, namun ia justru mengambil keuntungan dari situasi tersebut. Film ini menyajikan bagaimana kapitalisme global bekerja dalam skala kecil.
Based on a true story, the short tells the story of two villagers who grab a tree trunk in the middle of the forest to be cut down. One party felt the tree belonged to him because it was on his family’s land. While one party considers the tree to be his because his father used to plant it. A local hunter tries to intervene, but instead, he takes advantage of the situation. This film presents how global capitalism works on a small scale.
