一个孤独的牧羊人凭着一己之力和数十年的时间，在荒漠中种出了大片的树林，把土丘变成了绿洲。《种树的牧羊人》是Frédéric BACK先生1987年出品的一部代表作品，动画的剧本改变自法国作家Jean Giono在1953年出版的同名小说。整部动画片充满了诗意的叙述。与其说这是一个动画片，不如说它是一个精致的散文。淡泊而又意味深长，风格简约而又意味深长。叙事代替了色彩和形式成为主角。
2006年6月在法国安锡(Annecy)国际动画电影节上评选出的“动画的世纪·100部作品”荣登第五名。

1981年奥斯卡获奖作品，像诗歌一样优美的动画短片。
它在树林中倒下，化身为农夫家的摇椅，摇曳数十载，见证农夫的新婚，见证每个温馨的日子，成为孩子童年的好伙伴。然而随着岁月的流逝，渐渐老化的他还是难以逃离被丢出家门的命运。
几度春秋风雪，摇椅见证着城市的日新月异和点点变化。直到美术馆的门卫再次发现它。比起冷冰冰的线条，摇椅再次为孩子们带来了乐趣。孩子的遐想中，它可以是战马也可以是小船，永远承载着欢乐。

"Every living thing that shares the planet with us has had to adapt and evolve over millions of years. Every flower, every insect, every animal is a miracle waiting to be discovered, a marvel to be respected and loved. But we like to replace them with our own inventions, served up by the magicians of advertising, the promoters of progress and over-consumption. Unfortunately, these inventions are outmoded all too quickly. They break down, often taking with them that which is essential to our lives and happiness, the elements needed to sustain the real miracles accomplished by nature."

在奥斯卡奖，他赢得了CRAC！允许弗雷德里克·巴克，以履行他带来吉恩·吉诺的精彩故事的人种植的树木屏幕的梦想。在蒸馏出来的形式，其环境信息和生活理念体现的担忧已经在他以前的电影谈到了一步。种子牧羊人植物都是我们的所有行动，好的和坏的，具有深远的影响，我们几乎无法想像的符号。它是由我们来思考，按照我们对未来的希望行事，而且，如果可能的话，给我们世界变得更美丽，并承诺比我们继承了一个身后离开。

1981年奥斯卡提名作品。人若不善待自然，最后的结局就是毁灭了自己。

"Taratata is a tribute to the parades that used to be held on Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day, Quebec's national holiday. These parades were an occasion to honour traditional values or demonstrate progress by way of allegorical floats. Presented each year on June 24 in cities and towns all over Quebec, they gave local musicians and brass bands a chance to display their talents. Children adored the pageant with its splendid uniforms. The day would end with a great fireworks display. I wanted to evoke this popular celebration once again, emphasizing what was charming, ridiculous or pretentious."
