Synopsis
Gene and Finny are two boys who are best friends living in 1943, at the height of World War II.

The two boys attend the Devon School, which prepares them for military life that they will most likely be subjected to. The film begins with a narration by an older Gene, traveling back to Devon some years later. The thing he wishes most to see is the tree, which had a great effect on the boys' lives
