‘Some Of Us’ is a short film based around a poem that asks the question, do we sometime forget how close to nature we are? In an ever so changing world of technology, do we sometimes look at nature as something we just live with, or something we are part of and must protect? The film looks at trees in particular and aims to show the many comparisons they have with humanity. The film promotes humans as individuals, each with their own dreams, ambitions and purposes. The poem, which seems to be spoken by an old wise tree, is then revealed to be a human who is talking for humans. Near the end of the film we witness the cycle of life as a tree, from it being born, living, contributing and then finally dying.
