The chainsaw draws near, and the little tree must leave its beautiful forest… After traveling over sea and mountain for several days and nights, the tree reaches an extraordinarily well-kept garden: straight rows, tall trees, flowers all in a line. At a first glance, it looks ideal. But the occupants are not very welcoming. They make the little tree clean up after them and discriminate against anything that, like him, has no roots. That is how he comes to meet the bird, the rock, the puddle, and the star, who teach him a lesson about humanity through their tales.
