Friends of Trees and the City of Eugene present EEFF's opening screening event! Visit the EEFF website for details on this screening, workshops and off-site festival events! PROGRAM INCLUDES: Community Rights Action kickstarts the first session with a short pre-show presentation, followed by two screenings. Call in the Crèche (11m): A mini-doc about a crèche in Paparoa, New Zealand, focused on saving an iconic species of kiwi, and how that relates to protecting the entire ecosystem. A Thousand Pines (75m): Raymundo Morales runs a crew of 12 Oaxacan tree planters traveling the United States in this intimate portrait about the hidden world of guest workers regrowing America’s forests. We follow them over the course of one season planting for the country’s largest reforestation company, and we watch as Raymundo balances the job's demands with the needs of his men and their loved ones back home. Through the voices of the planters and company owners, we learn how the industry turned from American to foreign workers, and how planting went from work people cherished to work people endure. Join us for the opening night after-party at WildCraft Cider Works featuring Alder Street All-Stars!">
