Synopsis
Early morning, an architect picks ripe cherry tomatoes from a small garden by the window to pack his lunchbox for work. Eco-energy flows from the tomato vines. This eco-energy, born from small acts of environmental stewardship, accompanies the architect as he heads out to the frontlines of the climate crisis once again.
