Abstract
"David" begins with a young man, JoAnn Elam's brother David, in a tree in an unidentified backyard, possibly in Chicago. The camera follows as he contorts his body to shake fruit loose from the tree, ending with succesful drops in the garden below. A gardener herself, Elam's filmmaking shows her interest in documenting the labor involved in the process.
