A tree enthusiast faces an existential crisis after realizing the tree survey he received in the mail was sent to many people and not just him.
Bat Boy
Andre, a young man on the autism spectrum, finds solace in visiting the bats that live under the bridge near house. One day his world is turned upside down when the bats disappear. At the behest of his concerned grandmother, he seeks out the help of a lauded bat scientist to help him find out what happened. Rather than helping Andre, the bat scientist projects her own environmental cynicism onto his quest and spurns his plea for help. When she finally cracks and agrees to help, she uncovers a crushing secret about the bats’ disappearance that tests Andre’s resilience.

In My Time
When millennial Julia is forced to move back in with her boomer father Piet, the generational conflict is reflected in whether or not to cut down the old tree in front of the house.
