This short film ONE TREE MANY LlVES is all about the caring and observation of young school children about the life of one tree in the compound of their school and the many lives around it. Santosh comes to the school regularly with a small camera gifted by his father on the last World Environment Day. His inclination for nature photography helped his friends to develop the skill of observation of the natural world and apply most of the knowledge gathered from it in their studies. Many animals, such as birds, squirrels and a variety of insects, spend much of their lives in trees. These animals are born in trees, live in trees, raise their young in trees and seldom come down to the ground. Trees provide them shelter from the weather and from enemies. Trees provide food in the form of fruits, nuts and leaves. Many people pass trees and don't realize that they are a home to all these living creatures. When ONE TREE is cut, MANY LIVES will be ruined. ONE TREE AND MANY LIVES portrays the wonderful experiences of young school children in their class discussion about nature through real interactions with it.
