The video shows a collective performance with children from Hagaskolan in Vallentuna. The performance was part of a one year long participatory and performative process that My Lindh had carried out in the forest of Kristineberg in Vallentuna. Lindh, together with children from class 5b in Hagaskolan, approached the pine by testing the extent of their own bodies in relation to the pine. What happens in the meeting between the forest and the human, how much time and place does a human take and how far does a pine tree reach?
