Through the Trees

Itinerant industry flexibly enabled as resourceful families seek continuity, their newfound country strange and mysterious in haunting possession of otherworldly customs.

The sudden realization that you're actually there and need to learn a new language, simple things like buying groceries much more confusing at the startling outset. 

Finding work also a difficult task as cultural and linguistic barriers demotivate, yet perseverance and determination eventually lead to modest earnings.

Lodgings also tough to come by as rental negotiations require knowledgeability, yet with compassion and understanding rooms are eventually to be found. 

Community contacts are gradually made as the enthusiastic immigrants settle, local networks providing help as they seek to learn more about their neighbourhood. 

Other people in similar circumstances lend a hand and offer friendship.

But hostilities also emerge.

As communities struggle to get along at times.

The difficulties of learning a foreign language while simultaneously finding a job and somewhere to live, aren't lost on the filmmaking team as they showcase several scenes of inherent disillusionment. 

The manifestation of sympathetic people seeking to lend a helping hand also works well, people noting the newcomer's courage and keenly responding with tips and aid.

The focus on how things start to level out as more time passes is skillfully done, the not-so-smooth-at-times integration effectively facilitating highs and lows.

The scenes at work help to diversify the narrative as several different characters tell their tales, immigration stories from all over the world humanistically told with hardboiled eloquence.

Communal celebrations add a festive touch as the years pass with energetic resolve, the coming together of various traditions sewing resilient interactive multiplicities.

The humble transference of their origins and customs fruitfully enhances local cultural narratives.

Adding transfigurating depth. 

While keeping in mind local industry.

The snow refused to charitably yield and continued falling for weeks on end, the resultant piles indeed insurmountable as commerce and education could no longer function.

Even the army was unable to clear the vast voluminous onslaught of flakes, and people were locked down in grim seclusion with no emancipating end in sight.

For some, it was plain old February the dead of winter putrid and zombified, it was just a matter of one more board game before the resolute sun would resplendently shine.

But this time it didn't, the unabashed snow snidely fell with blanketing tempestuousness, as emphatic worries gradually increased with distressing implacable disregard. 

It felt like the time of the caveman as cloistered hysterics began to erupt, and too much time had awkwardly passed to relieve the tension with play and song.

When, to make matters worse, domestic cats and dogs revolted. 

And forged wild hunting parties of their own. 

From which safe refuge could not be found.

It's utterly absurd.

Like our cherished pets would ever wildly revolt against us!

It doesn't make sense if contemporary logic is keenly taken into universal account.

Still, the scene where the gigantic pack of dogs vehemently descended on the ________ team, was crazy intense and filled with emotion through the creative use of traditional plays. 

I suppose it was a bit cliché to have the army taken out first, to make the film that much more harrowing as the snow continued to fall.

The battle at the sequestered nunnery between the sisters and the barrage of cats, was spiritually sinister in its death-defying bedlam, no doubt ill-suited to Sunday school.

Throughout, the bewildered Trundle family oddly observes the ancient imbroglio, scholastically endowed and academically inclined they can't explain the pestilent reckoning.

I loved how the hibernating animals emerged from their slumber to save the town, passionately criticizing the dogs and cats for casting off their traditional domesticity. 

Ending the film with the bucolic, Just another god damn February, left me somewhat overcome with joy, the bizarro crisis having been averted, not bad for animation.

Troubled times chaotically emerge across a once united and prosperous continent, the deranged whims of an unhinged jackass breaking down decades worth of trust.

New scenarios effectively matriculate within the given framework with contagious hope, as people more familiar with continental commerce focus their insights on local trends.

At times feeling somewhat uncertain as the opaque puzzle shifts and sideswipes, the compelling example of a nation within a nation spiritually instructs the neophyte tenure. 

Even though Québec was once left behind by a dismissive and proud monopolizing English Canada, it still agrees to offer advice on how to build thriving local economies. 

Having resisted the colonialist onslaught of American media throughout the North, it boldly supplies creative exemplars of unique crafts and books and films. 

The delegates from Ontario saliently marvel in disbelief, at how a culture so close to the United States has intricately defined itself organically. 

An observer keenly notes the following theory that he holds dear, that artisans creating novelties in Québec are more concerned with sharing high-quality goods.

The esteemed sublimity culturally attached to exquisite crafts sold at affordable prices, startles and shocks the Anglo delegation with its general focus on expensive kitsch. 

Markets that have nothing to do with sports or wildlife begin to materialize throughout the country, as respectable and affordable innovations are given the green light by local banks. 

Québec's collective focus definitively refined through English Canada's dismissals, is fluently adapted by that very same network as it experiences the same thing at the hands of the Americans. 

Speeches are made across the nation warmly thanking Québec for its help, and sadly apologizing for the heinous way it was scurrilously treated by advocates of imperialism. 

And as time slowly passes, a miracle takes place, as things become so much much less tacky, and so unlike what's found in the States. 

And the focus isn't to spend as little as possible to make enormous profits. 

But to simply make quality goods. 

That people like.

And sell them reasonably.

Why do some animals sleep throughout the winter while others struggle to find food?

Was it through the defiance of a jaded divinity?

Or as the climate shifted, did they simply not move away?

Feel bad for local deer anyway.

They be strugglin'.

Big time.
