About Family Tree
A lonely young boy, overshadowed by his older brother, picked on by other boys at school and ignored by his businessman father, finds strength and companionship from a stately old oak tree. When his father, a real-estate developer, plans to demolish the old tree in order to make way for a factory, the boy decides to stand up for his friend and stand up to his father.
Directed by Duane Clark, Family Tree leans on a strong ensemble — Robert Forster, Naomi Judd, Andrew Lawrence — 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 drama titles of 1999.
