“To me, a Christmas tree is a symbol of happiness,” says one of the subjects of director Celia Aniskovich’s illuminating documentary about the Christmas tree trade in New York City, which is dominated by five families. These trees also symbolize a high-stakes business where, as another seller notes, “You have to make all your money in five weeks,” and Santa help them if the weather turns rainy and ugly.
