The Tree

Australia Charlotte Gainsbourg

Family melodrama. Dad dies at the beginning leaving mom with four kids. Eight yo daughter is convinced dad's spirit lives in the huge tree on their property. The film centers on their collective coping and moving on.

This theme has been done many times (Men Don't Leave). The only thing exceptional about this one is the beautiful Aussie locations. Nice role for and performance by CG.
