 The American owner of a French country home (David Sackrider) continues his annual effort to create a forest behind his property north of Paris. Instead of his usual trip to Belgium to purchase the trees, he visits a local nursery where he selects this year s plantings - Claude, Henri, Raymond and Pierre (all voiced by veterans of the French Foreign Legion). It s a long day for the American; his transportation is garaged a walk, a Metro ride and another walk away from his Paris apartment. Then it s on and off the autoroute before finding the nursery. He then has to squeeze the trees into a too-small minivan, find his way back to the autoroute, reach his destination and, finally, get them into the ground. The trees, meanwhile, are not pleased: It s cold, they re nervous, he s lost. But they re also young, and opinionated, and ready to give the American (and each other) a piece of their French minds. Claude and Pierre are more youthful in spirit while Henri and Raymond aren t quite sure what they ve gotten themselves into. The trees provide hilarious running commentary on the misadventures and misdirection of their new caretaker. And argue amongst themselves? Of course - they re family!
