Over the course of Julia's tree-sit, a few people were in direct contact with her. They brought her food, friends, conversation, media personnel, and mail. Julia discovers just how important the feeling of communal support is to her. But how much is too much?

This award-winning documentary reveals the extraordinary transformation and spiritual journey of a 23-year-old woman who climbed 200 feet up into a redwood tree and lived there for two years in order to save the thousand-year-old-tree from destruction. Julia lived on a platform the size of a coffee table, survived the ordeal of menacing helicopters, and was nearly blown off the tree and thrown to the forest floor by 90 MPH winds. As a result of her courageous act of civil disobedience, Julia is the youngest person thus far inducted into the Ecology Hall of Fame.
