Red Trees | Official US Trailer

Opening select theaters September 15th.
Award-winning filmmaker, Marina Willer (Cartas da Mãe), creates an impressionistic visual essay as she traces her father’s family journey as one of only twelve Jewish families to survive the Nazi occupation of Prague during World War II. Photographed by Academy Award® nominee César Charlone (City of God), the film travels from war-torn Eastern Europe to the color and light of South America and is told through the voice of Willer’s father Alfred (as narrated by Tim Pigott-Smith, Quantum of Solace), who witnessed bureaucratic nightmares, transportations and suicides but survived to build a post-war life as an architect in Brazil. As the world struggles with the current refugee crisis, RED TREES is a timely look at a family besieged by war who finds peace across an ocean.

I watched this documentary in Netflix and enjoyed immensely ! I like the minimalist approach, slow tempo, beautiful photography, moving narrative which allowed me to absorb this story of survival and renewal. The stained and weathered walls of many of these places are silent witnesses of the tragedy that befell humanity during those tragic years. The music at the end of the documentary evokes an intimate whisper and I found it extremely moving. This documentary adds one more grain of sand to the incomplete narrative of the holocaust.

LOL.
I'm writing a script for school, simultaneously listening to "Max Richter - Path 5", and I thought I might rename the story to "Red Trees", so I decided to look up if there was another movie called "Red Trees."
Wtf.
