Synopsis

Have you ever fallen in love with a tree? When the residents of the Woodberry Down Estate in Hackney, London, find out that a property developer has been given permission to fell a much-loved 150-year-old London Plane street tree - which even has its own name, the 'Happy Man Tree' - they start a campaign to try to save it. The film charts the ups and downs of the nine-month David and Goliath battle from the point of view of the brave and endlessly creative local activists who range from 7-year-old Lucas to 82-year-old Sylvia who has lived on the estate for 60 years. This is an innovatively-made grassroots-style film with the charismatic Happy Man Tree as its central character.

Synopsis

In 1968, art students Storm Thorgerson and Aubrey “Po” Powell made a trippy photo collage for their musician friends Syd, David and Roger. The resulting album and album cover, 'A Saucerful of Secrets', helped launch two careers: that of Pink Floyd, one of the 70s megabands, and of Hipgnosis, which, over the course of the next 25 years, designed a stream of iconic album covers. Photographer, filmmaker and designer Anton Corbijn fills his Hipgnosis history with case studies of album art from Pink Floyd’s 'Dark Side of the Moon', considered by many to be the greatest album art of all time, to Led Zeppelin’s mind-altering 'Houses of the Holy'. Fuelled by Powell's vivid storytelling, Corbijn captures the energy of a team making iconoclastic art amidst one of the most hedonistic eras in music history.
