Children of the Eternal City gather in tree-planting ceremonies on one of Rome's 7 Hills, launching a nation-wide conservation program. Establishing shot - A large crowd has gathered on a hill side and you see potted trees laying about. MS - Two pre-teens planting a small potted tree. MCUS - There are a lot of children on this hill planting trees. CUS - A little pine tree. MCUS - Looks like this tree planting has turned into a religious tree planting ceremony with the blessing of a priest, as he blesses the trees and the people they cross them selves. LS / Camera panning the crowd and in the back ground you see the modern city of Rome.
