A film made of disjointed scenes oscillating between past and present. The title comes from a poem by Stuart Perkoff that tells how a few young people (around 1960) felt that everything was against them, even the trees in the parks and streets seemed to them like weapons threatening their very existence.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e— \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eJonas Mekas\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space: pre-wrap;\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"\u003e\"\u003cem\u003eGuns of the Trees\u003c\/em\u003e expresses the thoughts, the feelings, the anguished efforts of my generation, faced with the moral perplexity of our time. Conceived as an episodic, horizontal film, there is no apparent connection between one scene and the next. The scenes act as pieces of a larger emotional mosaic. Where the direct word, or the direct image, fails—when one gets to more essential things—the poet's indirect way will capture the essence and the truth.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e— Jonas Mekas\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jonas Mekas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56788906770763,"sku":"SQ4527887","price":19.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/3034\/9643\/files\/DVD--Guns_of_the_Trees.webp?v=1773411775","url":"https:\/\/re-voir.com\/en\/products\/mekas-guns-of-the-trees","provider":"Re:Voir","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
