About Patagonia:
At Patagonia, we appreciate that all life on earth is under threat of extinction. We’re using the resources we have-our business, our investments, our voice and our imaginations-to do something about it. - Спорт
I was speaking with a friend recently about the connection I feel to nature having done two long-distance backpacking trips, the last one 5 months long. I told him that I feel a connection to the forest now that I think will shape the rest of my life. It took me some courage to utter the words, "I can feel the trees now." I felt immediate embarrassment knowing how people with mainstream western American ideas about nature would dismiss me. But I said it because it's true. To hear so many others speak of the Kodama, that trees are connected through a vast network, of mother trees... well, this movie helped me give myself the final permission I needed to fully embrace what the trees are teaching me.
@@rangerjaxmaxmay7742 Thank you for the recommendation ☺️ I’m saving that one to read during my next long trip. I want to be immersed in the trees when I read it.
Don't feel ashamed at all you're in tune with nature which by nature is very high vibration, it's main stream society that is behind, backwards and asleep. Trees in the spiritual world have the highest vibration. I recently learned all this going through a major spiritual awakening. Trees do communicate with other trees. Trees can do spell work for you but you must ask their permission. I now talk to the tree that's in my backyard all the time and greet it! I can't do it now due to the elements but if you walk clockwise barefoot around a tree it will raise your vibration. Anytime a tree is cut down, burned etc...it honestly hurts me a little, namaste.
How can a tree teach you if it cannot communicate with you? Do you think perhaps you are finding things out for yourself and teaching yourself by allowing yourself time alone in nature to think through things you may not have concentrated on before? How do you know that whatever it is you are getting comes from the trees?
@@woody1380 would you learn the same if you sat isolated in a room? I doubt it.
@Frank Sand Castle Wow! Just...wow...😶
thankfully many are slowly awakening to the nature around them. In 2019 i was taking my normal early spring walk through the mountain park not far from where i live, and i noticed something good. When i stopped by the trailside to remove the tiny weeds that were choking the small native flowering creepers, as i sometimes do - something was different this time. Just lately this trail is no longer a solitary walk, young people now come along it from time to time...and this day, as they passed me they stopped briefly to see what i was doing. They were taking an interest, and it was a joyful moment for me to finally share my lifetime knowledge of the local plants, and how to care for them so they are not choked by the overwhelming amount of tiny weeds that otherwise they would never notice as they walk by. They were so interested, so pleased to hear about these things...i felt it was all worth it to have lived to be sixty years old and finally see so many others take a happy interest in mother earth and her creatures. We shared a lot more than smiles and information that day two years ago....
and each spring since then, this has continued to happen...so wonderful to be part of the changing and expanding awareness.
Was looking for a snowboarding movie and ended up watching a nature documentary about trees
not disappointed in the slightest
Great video guys, thanks for it. As a Mexican Im very glad our current president is implementing laws to take care of flora and fauna. I love nature.
It’s great that these films don’t have ads... thank you...
What à beautiful story. So humbling. We are just a part off. Ìt reminded me. Ì am only half awakè. Missing so much, even though I have a huge love for nature. A huge respect. I know there is a mighty intelegence and awareness out there that is barely acknowledged. Just so beautiful.
Beautiful! I was born on the edge of the forest and trees were my first friends. Any culture pulling away too far from nature is doomed, soon or later. We should always treat nature with respect and kindness. And therefore learn and understand the enormous gift we are surrounded with and take for granted.
💚
Stunning film...brought tears to me eyes...loved the message, poetry, visuals, music and sound...it's rare that a short film moves you in such a deep way...thank you Jordan Manley and Patagonia for this beautiful piece of art!!!
This brought me to a meditative state of mind ? This piece is utterly stunning. I hope it brings peace and empathy to all humanity💚
Cry every time I see clear cutting
well said, I felt heart pain when that tree went down in the Canadian forest.
This. Video. Rocked me.
A sublime meditation. A soulful reminder of how far removed human kind has grown from our roots ...literally. The connections we have lost, that continue to slip away, will ultimately reach far deeper into our survival than we could ever imagine. As we fly faster and faster, consuming our way toward an ambiguous future, it's heartening to know some things will remain long after we have disappeared.
Right. Removed from our spiritual roots! It seems from what I understand, the Buddhist seeks to find G-d through connecting to nature, whereas Jewish thinking seeks a direct connection to G-d and from this perspective, observes nature. The latter approach I strongly believe, is a much more profound and meaningful perspective to access truth but more than that, it is in fact the only way!
Beautiful film, and well said.
Peter Gumaer Ogden I guess that’s your perspective... very interesting how everyone’s perspective differs from the same stimuli. Have you ever wondered why this is?
@@Dovidw : Allow me to summarize:
What good is an understanding of Nature, without a value system by which to evaluate Nature?
What good is an idealized value set, if you ignore the perceivable universe, accessible to your senses?
If God is good, you're supposed to use your brain. If you use your brain, then you discover that some of the things people believed in the "long-long-ago" to come straight from the Mouth of God, couldn't possibly have come from the mouth of a good and omniscient God. You find that Bronze-Age wisdom includes Bronze-Age misconceptions. And that's OK. Learn from the wisdom and say "Ooops! Some imperfect human musta gotten God's words a little confused."
don't square with your understanding of the reality that God put in front of you.
If anything, I'm more of a Deist. More of a "Great Architect" concept. This was put here for us to make the most of and do the most good with. And preserve. But also, one would think, to evolve in the next few million years to where we can survive the eventual blowup of our Sun! That's the species deadline God gave us.
Fake ass people spending more time commenting on youtube rather than going out to get some
We must unplug from our materialism, movies, and city dwelling, so we can wake up, reconnect, and protect that which is most precious...trees and children!
Allowing ourselves to connect with and learn from trees is fundamental to our collective well being. Ancient rhythms. The more time I spend in the forests, the more I love and appreciate the majesty of trees.
And the lack of use of man of his brain
@@dm2781632 für mich fehlt die Verbindung von Herzen und Verstand.
Saint Exupery lässt den kleinen Prinzen sagen dass wir nur mit dem Herzen gut sehen können.
@@dm2781632 und bitte nicht das Herz vergessen.
Authors like Herman Hesse and JRR Tolkien showed me there is more to trees than meets the eye. This film helped take this precious knowledge to an even deeper level of appreciation. Thank you.
try overstory
When we animate trees it's not too far from reality & hopefully makes them more precious.
Hi, I was wondering which book of Hesse you are thinking of?
@@daanvangeijlswijk7787 The ones with lots of nature references; primarily 'Siddhartha' and, Narcissus & Goldmund.
@@daanvangeijlswijk7787 Peter Camenzind
I remember my Mom ( RIP) 019 always talked to her plants...and now i do the same ❤️
Ps: subtitles are too small to read.
this was inspiring...arigato
When I was walking through the woods in Australia back in the 70's I felt one big lovely tree calling to me and I walked towards it feeling a deep connection. I put my arms around it and felt myself being invited inside and I let myself go and for brief moments I felt that I was the tree and could feel the sun on my leaves and a slight breeze and I could see for miles, the moment I hesitated with doubt I was gently let go. Trees have spirits and are kind and loving. Nature has always been the love of my life.
My son Simeon Immanuel Hill passed on recently. Brought over to the old growth by the Ancestors he snow surfs with them, Ancient of days he rides ascending beyond into the reserection Glory that is grateful 🙏 forever and ever.
The most spiritually touching film I have ever seen, stunning Thank you
This film is Truth, Love and Wisdom
Beautiful film about these wondrous trees and how they communicate - and about some of the people around the world who don't just ski through these special old growth forests - they feel real connection to them. To learn that bristlecone pines live for 5,000 years and have been on the earth for 70 million years as a species is extraordinary. Death is but a transfer of energy in a forest. Find your own tree. The soundtrack and cinematography here is fabulous, but the ideas are just as wonderful if not more so.
Well said!
I've watched this documentary dozens of times, and every time I return to it I am blown away by how wonderful it is.
Absolutely, and every time I interact with my favorite tree or talk to it I usually think of this documentary 😊 So grateful for this and also all the beautiful humans on this planet.
If I were a Nobel Prized poet I could not express anymore beautifully than what this film says of trees.
Thank you Patagonia and everyone who was involved in the making of this masterful piece of art. I'm truly thankful!
Five minutes into watching this film, I realized it was the best film I will ever see. I mean, maybe I will see a better one but I'm not holding my breath. I immediately watched this film twice, not just because it is filmed in BC, where I fell in love with trees. Also, because there is uphill and downhill powderskiing in huge amounts. For me, amazing.
Thank you Patagonia from a tree lover, farmer and skier.
I tell everyone I meet on the street to watch Tree lines!!!!! For the love of the Trees!!!!
I love trees as much as I love the air I breath.
Came here to see some trees skiing and I actually found something better, good job!
I wanted to watch a video with winter landscapes and beautiful trees, and then ended with a broken heart and tears for the future of those very things. Thank you for an unforgettable and stunning video portrayal.
I did too. I feel sad. It is so hard to make changes. I can appreciate in the end that it was recommended to find our own tree, just one. I really need to put my thinking cap on and reach out to children more.
@@upninjakeeper I have a grove of trees here and a few more over there. I go and hang with them at various times. I usually touch the bark and leaves to get kind of tuned into them, nothing too elaborate. My Soul needs Nature to keep me centered. I have been taking my boys in the outdoors all of their lives ( 20 some years). They thank me now as young adults.
Possibly the best, or perhaps most sublime, documentary I have seen. The cinematography is a real work of art; the way the stories of cultures that lived in the forests for millenia and their wisdom is conveyed delicately and with masterful nuance. I would say the cinematography is on par if not better than the BBC's Planet Earth series.
Auf jeden Fall ist es unendlich wie ein Wunder und ein Märchen das wahr
geworden ist! Vielen lieben Dank!
Dies zu sehen und auch weiterzugeben ist ein großes Geschenk!
Wäre schön wenn es in den Kindergärten schon gezeigt würde, denn ich bin sicher, daß die Kinder es intuitiv verstehen würden!
Und dies eine Grundlage für das zukünftige Leben im jungen Leben
bilden könnte!
Nochmals herzlichen Dank und Glückwunsch für das gelungene
über ein Kunstwerk hinausgehende Gabe an die Menschheit!
Aloha and Namaste!
I've watched this three times so far. Kudos to all that contributed, directed, and produced this feast for the eyes, ears, and heart. It continues to captivate and resonate.
Thanks, Dad, for introducing me to the power, beauty and wonders of nature when I was just a sprout. R.I.P.
Trees are our ancestors, the giants of our past, the cleansers and balancers, stabilisers and protectors for the earth; the fire of the sun in our hearts and hearths, cool shade, fruits, the cloth of green over the rocks, the jewels in the desert, even hidden resources under the ice. When the elder trees in a forest are cut down the whole forest loses its direction - the young trees have no ancestor trees to learn from, and when large areas are cut down the continuity and connection between them all - the family - is broken. This film is beautiful and full of wisdom from those who understand. Planting trees is the most important thing we can do but we cannot replant the divine life-source in a forest. It would be like expecting severed limbs, or false limbs grown in a test tube, to regrow into a living body with a soul; no, that is impossible. We are causing our own destruction on this planet. Thank you Patagonia for your vision.
I've seen this three times now - every time it brings tears to my eyes - a meditative state where I see the world for the first time
What a beautiful documentary. I was mesmerized about the beauty, majesty, and magic of trees. I’ve always believed they talk to us and each other.
Ja ich spreche auch mit den Bäumen, aber auch mit meinen Pflanzen , die Monstera so heißt diese Pflanze und sie antworten mir auch! Es ist wirklich manchmal sehr lustig!
Ich bin sehr begeistert über diese Dokumentation welche auch eine Mediation für mich ist!
Just stunning, spiritual, sad, joyous, moving and all the other superlatives everyone else is using below.
Trees are sentient beings, they support us and our planet and its ecosystems forever. Learn to respect our Trees and give thanks by protecting them...
BC my favourite mountains so far I discovered surfing in France and was inducted into what is more commonly known as free riding. My mentor Dominic only referred to Surfing. Japan I love after my visit 1993 studying Architecture and fell spellbound by their history but more their culture, leading to my respect for Shinto and its base theories, that we are at one with the earth and it talks to us. This also resonates amongst the nany native tribes of BC some of whom are my dearest friends. In Japan I visited a monastery rebuilt every 20 years using traditional dry joinery techniques. My final project encompassed All aspects also using current new green energies built on an island of recycled rubbish(existing) encompassing all philosophies I had encountered so far including hugging hugging the great trees at the monastery.
Absolutely Beautiful documentary. I need to go to Hokkaido and surf with the priest. I miss Japan and its people, after not returning after all that time working in the film industry it would be great to go back. I felt at peace.
"We stood like two trees beside, intertwined into one. And when the winds blew against us, we would laugh at it, as leaves clapping hands to our strength. Always day. We had all the stars, but no sky to hang them onto. We were brave, but not strong. Bare, but not skeleton. We had song, but no dance. Time slipped as a blessed curse. We knew the pennies were slipping from our pockets, and we left them there on the ground as worthless cents. In wordless sense, we finally found our darkness, but the stars had all faded by then."
A fantastic film about the forest ecosystem. To bad it is threatened by human exploitation. We have to save the last remains of old growth forests in the world starting right now!
Thank you very much to bring us human beings closer to nature.
I come back to this film every month or so
This is a magnificent, beautiful and powerful film. How appropriate that this was recommended on Thanksgiving Day. May the teachings of these ancient companions find room in our hearts. May we find contentment in collaboration with such greatness. May this message spread far and wide.
Beautifully told! Very true that humanity has always lived at the edge of the forest.
My family and I have spent the last two decades living right at the meeting of old growth forest and ocean, and I can say from experience that it's rewarding beyond measure.
I agree Zach. It's incredible that humanity, having come from the trees now feels it's smart enough to consume the fragile forest environments to satisfy the lust for consumption. It appears from all the wonderful comments here that those who "get it" connect with the film, but the real challenge is to gain connection from those who don't.
This is such a beautiful homage to the wonder of trees - thank you so much to those who created this film
That was unexpected. I love the flow, adrenaline, ephemerality and tricksiness of snowboarding, and mountain biking, but also the deep peace of trees and woodworking, and the connection to nature when observing birds and wildlife. This film hints to me at how we can seek to merge those disparate sensations into a convergent pursuit that is both fulfilling and sustainable.
What an absolutley beautiful and thought provoking film. A subtle, profound artistic jewel. Thank you ♥️
Awesome, thank you Patagonia for putting this together. a wonderful film that weaves subtle but powerful concepts together that brings you into a introspective almost meditative space that makes the scene of a tree being cut down feel like a punch in the gut. I will share this with many. Thanks again for this wonderful film
another beautiful jordan manley film! thank you so much patagonia for making this possible!
Thank you Patagonia films. Beautiful!
Best documentary ever. Such magnificent creatures 💚
This concept is a gift. Articulately flowing throughout.Thank you. Peace, love and respect. x
Incredibly shot and love how the beauty of science was expressed. What a film!
I'm in love with this film and my tree friends! You captured the serenity and magic of the forests and I loved how you blended spirituality with science and sport. Fantastic work, Jordan and co.
Decidedly one of the most stunning films I have seen...thank you
For the love of trees - inspiring film for my next project about driftwood, thank you Patagonia.
Thank you so much for allowing us to watch this on youtube!
The connection to witness, the knowledge to be had when living amongst the trees. A beautifully captured film.
What a gem! Thanks for making my morning coffee so spiritual. I go to the Bristlecones every summer.
Almost cried. Thank you, Patagonia and all the people in this film.
Thank you Patagonia and all involved in this film. It has touched me deeply.
Absolutely perfect. I loved how these incredible individuals have connected their souls and spirits to trees in some sort of way and make us think about taking time to appreciate the purpose of these silent giants. Beautiful film!
Beautiful ! Simply beautiful ! Many thanks to you ! Hope this film will sow...
So touchy and beautiful. thank you for this wonderful gift!
This film is an absolutely gorgeous, beautiful, sublime meditation. Thank you so much!
A great example to everyone else in the outdoor industries :-) A soulful, meditative journey that goes so far beyond the usual adrenaline seeking of most skiing related videos! A model we aspire to.
Grateful to have skied thru those Cedars in BC - so very beautiful. The aerial showing more and more cut blocks is what I’ve observed thru the years and is heartbreaking. Beautiful film.
Thank you for this. Living in a world full of mistruths and alernative facts this was beautifully refreshing.
This was such a great film. Glad to have caught it here in Tokyo before the season started.
The film won for the Category of Best Documemtary Short in the Trenton Film Festival
This film is awesome and about time, we're reading the Hidden Life of Tree's and all of a sudden there is a film saying the same thing... consciousness is shifting, people are waking up and trees are so so important. Thank You Patagonia for educating and inspiring. Get it into schools!
This is the most beautiful film I have ever seen.
Just wow!! How the music and sounds supports the atmosphere of a slow growing tree and the environment that quickly past by it by.
Extremely well produced and thought provoking documentary. This isn't what I expected to see, but I sure appreciate that I watched it through. Very well done
Most of the time enjoy what Patagonia produces, but this was really exceptional. Thank you.
Congratulations to Jordan Manley & Pantagonia for this visually stunning, awe inspiring and insightful documentary. It won the category of "Best Documentary Short" in the Trenton Film Festival. Congratulations again!
Thank you for this thoughtful presentation. You do humanity a great service with this knowledge and beauty. Again, thank you.
One of the most beautiful videos I've ever watched. Incredibly, utterly amazing. Thank you for making this video.
It is aching to see the heart of the living nature around us, how it loves ,helps and protects us and how painfully we have not only distanced
from it but neglected and destroyed it ! Is there any hope for us to stop this crazy race against the forests ?
Thank you for this lovely reminder !
It’s actually healthy to cut down trees, it is called coppicing. Yeah right look it up.
Fantastic footage of the trees and their environment. What made this even more special was to see genuine people in love and clearly deeply connected to the trees and nature. Makes for an emotional watch given the world is predominantly full of human cancer cells in every village, town and city totally disconnected from the real world.
Patagonia overtly supports censorship in order to propagate the spreading of their ideology. Sounds pretty cancerous to me. I don't support any company that wades into any form of political ideology.
Amazing analogies !
Beautiful !!! Thank you Patagonia
Patagonia continue to set the bar. Beautiful, breathtaking and awe inspiring. ❤️
Thank you, that was magnificent and beautiful. I have always felt the energy of the trees. The forest is my sanctuary. I am deeply moved. Blessings.
Thankyou for creating this beautiful, powerful, moving and educational documentary. So grateful for all the gifted, wise beings teaching us the wisdom of nature.
One of the best and most moving films I've seen in a while (including all the recent feature drama films I've seen). Brings me back to the essence of my home in BC and gives some welcome homesickness for the forests and the powder surfing! Love it. Bravo!
Another absolutely magnificent film...
Mesmerizing and beautiful...
Between this, Artifishal, and takayna. Who even needs cable TV anymore?
Poignant, elegant, graceful and gracious and deeply moving! Beautiful film!
The best Patagonia science/eko movie yet.
Beautifully orchestrated and most importantly a stunning production of capturing the sacredness of the forest and trees. Thank you!
A real work of art. I loved everthing. Thank you.
What an exquisitely beautiful video. Thank you to all involved for speaking for and giving voice to the trees.
Absolutely beautiful.
This gave me chills...
Cool name!
Absolutely beautiful, thank you so much!
Blown away by the quality of these Patagonia films. The best thing on UA-cam easily. Please never stop doing what you do
Well done. Sublime in simplicity, and with the rare beauty of capturing the very essence of what it is to be out amongst the trees. How far removed our lives have become. I wish more people could be still long enough to watch this, then go out and learn more. Ethereal beauty.
That was breathtakingly beautiful, even spiritual.
Absolutely excellent!! Thank you for working so hard to save trees!💚🌲
Absolutely beautiful, thank you for sharing such stunning imagery and moving insights.
Patagonia products have enriched my life and saved me many times! *Thank You All!*
My Water Ski Magazine subscription name back in 1975 was ZippyWaterMan ! But Patagonia 📒Products, is that owned by Mike Doyle the big wave surfer from back in the ‘60’s ? I think he sells surf hats
@@grom7826 "I lost my heart to the Ocean and with it a piece of my soul" - Mike Doyle Surf School, Cabo Surf Shop inside the Cabo Surf Hotel. Yes, Mike had a business relationship with Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard going way back. Don't forget Dan Malloy! I wrote for Powder Magazine when Whistler/Blackcomb was the new kid on the block and Alta/Snowbird in Utah had no "official" connecting trail, but we made one anyway! We hauled HEAVY VHS cameras and large format antique cameras & tripods with Polaroid filmbacks. I've owned (and lost) several Waterman pens over the years, sold to me by Odell Chapell the first woman to work at Fahrney's Pens in DC and the salesclerk who sold JKF his first ballpoint pen! I hope you still find time for a good wave and reminiscing about those times! *It's a small world, my friend!*
Stunningly beautiful and wise! Thank you.
I wish this was a series. So beautiful, I could watch something like this for hours
Ditto
Scenes of paradise .Thank you from the bottom of my heart.!!!!
Smart and beautiful... Thank you Patagonia!
But the fact we are appreciating this documentary now, gives me hope that we are learning the importance of living in harmony with Mother Earth. Awesome video!
A truly incredible piece of work. Left me feeling completely reverent about trees and Mother Nature.
