"Tree of Life"

From Terrence Malick, the acclaimed director of Badlands, Days of Heaven and The Thin Red Line, comes
The Tree of Life, an impressionistic story of a Midwestern family in the 1950s. The film follows the life journey of the eldest son, Jack, through the innocence of childhood to his disillusioned adult years as he tries to reconcile a complicated relationship with his father (Brad Pitt). Jack (played as an adult by Sean Penn) finds himself a lost soul in the modern world, seeking answers to the origins and meaning of life while questioning the existence of faith. Through Malick's signature imagery, we see how both brute nature and spiritual grace shape not only our lives as individuals and families, but all life. Winner of the Palme d'Or (top honors) at this year's Cannes International Film Festival

Key word: impressionistic!!!!!!!
