The movie
"TREE IS LIKE A
MAN" is an educational documentary
where a tree cutter is emotionaly connected to the
forest.
The movie
utilises minimum speech. The picture and music speak
about the need to preserve the
forest as important part of human
environment.
Refik Kajmak is
a logger from village of Vraniska close
to Vitez, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Besides being
a logger, he loves wood.
At wood cutting competitions in former Yugoslavia and
Bosnia & Herzegovina he had high scores and
results.
He views
the forest not only through cutting. He feels for
the tree, nurishes it, watches and
admires it. One old dry tree that the cutter needs to
bring down was esspecially chosen for filming.
His sights go down,
he will use this tree for heating, furniture etc.
Director Nisvet Hrustic of Bosnia and
Herzegovina presents an engaging statement on the
co-existence of man and nature.
