The Talking Tree

The Talking Tree

The Talking Tree is an off-beat short comedy film written and directed by Stefan Hunt and produced by Matt Webb. It stars Eka Darville (Jessica Jones, Empire) who plays a man searching for purpose alongside John Ventimiglia (Blue Bloods, The Sopranos) an endearing claymation-faced tree who appears to have all the answers… sort of. The short film was shot by Director of Photography Justin Derry on 16mm in Central Park, New York.
