Short feature for the Children's Film Foundation directed by erstwhile editor Jim Clark, who writes 'It was made for next to nothing around the leafy lanes of Bucks and was about a group of kids who were trying to get a Christmas tree to a local hospital. I had helped write the script.' It took five weeks and Jim ruefully reflects that the film is probably lost for ever... so it's nice to see that it isn't.
It is also, quite against the odds, an early example of the Road Movie.
Peter Suschitsky shot it.
The kids are William Burghley, Kate Nicholls and Anthony Honour.
