While being confronted with the various sources of uncertainty and anxiety in his life, a young man is presented with an unexpected gift that changes his perception of himself and his surroundings forever.

Inspired by the Mohawk story of the Peacemaker, Chief Jake Swamp (1949-2010) planted trees worldwide to spread a message of peace. Two were planted in Saratoga Springs: one on the campus of Skidmore College and the other in High Rock Park, an important site representing the relationship between Mohawk and non-Native people. Skidmore's Tree is missing – and no one knows what happened to it since its planting. In this film, we hear from archaeologist Siobhan Hart and Mohawk storyteller Ionataie:was Kay Olan, who use these trees as a lens to examine how and what gets remembered - and forgotten.
