Film Synopsis

“In this whole whirling existence, are we really the only ones who are not part of nature,” asks James Balog at the beginning of A Redwood Grows in Brooklyn. Balog, an award-winning nature photographer, proceeds to explore the multi-layered answers to this question in this short, filmed monologue. Along the way he also offers an examination of how the landscape of trees in this country has changed so dramatically as well as a brief history of art and photography.

Plot Summary

As a renowned photographer, he also calls for a new way of seeing and photographing that will combat what he calls, the cultural amnesia that has made us lose the memory of what makes nature natural. Balog’s stunning photographs are weaved throughout the film, which complement the array of beautiful nature shots from Brooklyn itself, including the Redwood mentioned in the title.
