How it feels

This is a corporate information video from a Japanese wood products company. It explains how after World War Two, Tokyo's mountain forests were replanted too densely, and now the mature lumber needs to be harvested to restore the ecosystem. The company sells traditional crafts and gifts made from this local wood.
