"It builds on itself with time to become this. That's a story. That's a life well lived." HBO has revealed an official trailer for a breathtaking documentary film about trees, yes indeed about the magnificence of trees, with the title Trees and Other Entanglements. Filmmaker Irene Taylor crafts a poetic meditation on nature, mortality, and the passage of time in her exploration of our symbiotic nexus with trees.

In the last two years the documentary landscape has shifted from the golden age of docus to the corporate age of docus, making it increasingly difficult for nonfiction filmmakers with projects that aren’t about celebrities or true crimes to find distribution. But HBO Documentary Films is proving that despite being part of a corporate conglomerate, it still wants content that doesn’t necessarily pertain to bold faced names, salacious murders or cults.
Proof is Irene Taylor’s “Trees and Other Entanglements,” a feature doc that uses trees as the main throughline to tell various subject’s personal stories. Ahead of the film’s Dec. 12 world premiere on Max, HBO has released a trailer.
Taylor uses imagery, photography, and animation to introduce a diverse group of individuals entangled with the trees they love. Subjects include Bonsai master Ryan Neil, photographer Beth Moon, forest restorer Dirk Brinkman, recollector Carolyn Finney, and lumber heir George Weyerhaeuser Sr.
