Vision in the forest

Film trailer on forest fire prevention. While a family enjoys their camping trip in the forest, one of the children wanders away, and sees a vision: a cartoon character, Smokey Bear, comes alive in his fire prevention poster, and lectures on how people can befriend the forest and its wild creatures.
