A Thousand Pines

A Thousand Pines provides an unprecedented glimpse into the world of the Latino guest workers re-growing forests in the United States. This intimate portrait follows a twelve-person Mexican planting crew for a nine-month season traveling and working in the US. It focuses on the foreman, Raymundo Morales, as he struggles with balancing the job’s demands, the needs of his men, and caring for his family back home. (Morelia International Film Festival)
