About The Fir Tree

The story of a Christmas tree is told through the 'voice' of the tree itself. The tree has big ambitions, doing everything it can to grow so tall that it reaches the sky. Featuring extraordinary photography, the film follows the adventures of its life from sapling to maturity. One December day, everything changes when a little boy falls in love with the fir tree.

Directed by Lars Ostenfeld, The Fir Tree leans on a strong ensemble — Nikolaj Lie Kaas, Albert Rudbeck Lindhardt, Henrik Vestergård — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about family titles of 2011.
