Far From The Tree
The Lincoln Theatre and Chinook Enterprises present Far From the Tree, a film and discussion. Far From the Tree follows families meeting extraordinary challenges through love, empathy, and understanding. This life-affirming documentary encourages us to cherish loved ones for all they are, not who they might have been. Based on Andrew Solomon's award-winning, critically acclaimed, New York Times bestselling non-fiction book "Far From the Tree: Parents, Children and the Search for Identity."
Director: Rachel Dretzin
Language: English

“Enormously affecting." - Bob Mondello, NPR's All Things Considered
