Nothing is ever clear cut. In The Green Chain we meet Dylan Hendrix (played by Brendan Fletcher). Dylan loves trees. In fact he loves trees so much that he's living on a platform a hundred feet up a tree just to prove it. Ben Holm (Scott McNeil) loves trees too. But not the way Dylan does. Ben cuts trees down for a living. Leila Cole (Tricia Helfer) is another tree-hugger, but she also loves the publicity that comes with saving them, what drop dead gorgeous superstar doesn't? The Green Chain combines seven powerful, funny and thought-provoking stories about the people willing to risk their lives to save the forests and the people who survive by cutting them down. The Green Chain is a powerful, funny and thought-provoking film about the conflicts between the tree-lovers on both sides of the battle who are willing to risk anything to protect their personal visions of the forest.
The Green Chain premiered at the Montreal World Film Festival on August 26th, 2007.
