Cuomo's Lament

In a village, on a hill, in a far away corner of India, an unlikely cast of characters find themselves playing roles none of them are prepared for. A tree, totally foreign to the region, takes root overnight and becomes both an object of veneration and the flash point of a power struggle. An illiterate village boy who finds solace and nurture in the tree finds himself revered as a child god. A young girl who has strange affinity to relate with raindrops finds herself cast as a savior when the tree's existence is threatened by a group of people out to destroy it for their own greed. All three have one characteristic in common: they have extra sensory powers which enable them to communicate with Nature and with one another in a language unknown to man. This is a tale that emanates from one entity's desire for an altered reality that plays out with unexpected consequences for all. It's unlikely that such a story has been told earlier in quite this way ever before.
