Trees of peace takes place durning the Rwandan genocide, also known as the genocide against the Tutsi in 1994.
The film follows four women of different backgrounds, as they take refuge in a small space below a home as militants seek to murder all Tutsi people and those who sympathize with them.
What really stood out to me in this film was the ability to capture my attention from the very start of the film. Everything from the writing to the acting, directing production was at the highest level. The way the story kept my attention is something to behold in itself as the whole film takes place in this small space over a period of 80+ days.
This film is a reminder of the cruelty of humanity but also the kindness and love of it. I wouldn't be surprised if this gets Oscar nods. It's just that good. I'm excited to see where the careers of all involved go, especially Writer/Director Alannah Brown. I highly recommend this film!
