 Synopsis

After the sudden death of her father, eight-year-old Simone shares a secret with her mother, Dawn. She's convinced her father whispers to her through the leaves of her favourite tree. 
But the new bond between mother and daughter is threatened when Dawn starts a relationship with George, the plumber called in to remove the tree's troublesome roots. 
 
As the branches of the tree start to infiltrate the house, and the roots destroy the foundations, the family is forced to make an agonising, but ultimately liberating, decision. 
 
The Tree explores the capacity of imagination as a means to survive and the unstoppable power of life asserting itself over sadness.
