Independent Film: Family Tree - presented by the Arts Council of Central Louisiana

Family Tree explores sustainable forestry in North Carolina through the stories of two Black families fighting to preserve their land and legacy. Family Tree’s cinéma vérité approach reveals the vast task of maintaining the land while navigating challenging family dynamics, unscrupulous developers, and changing environmental needs. The forest itself and the beauty of its changing seasons become a primary character in this family drama

Meet the filmmaker, Jennifer MacArthur, for a Q&A after the screening.
