Far from the Tree

"This sweet short made me shed a tear and smile as well. Life is a cruel lesson, but hope and joy spring eternal. "

"Cute but too short"

"Beautifully done."

"A bit heavy, but a great story of breaking generational patterns. "

"Amazing! Really hit home for me as a mother to strive to connect with your children and teach them not just to dictate to them…SPOILERS in the film both mothers are trying to protect their children (the second mom having been the first child) however once the second mother realizes she is only repeating her mother’s way of instilling fear into her child to avoid danger, she chooses teach caution, lets them explore, have fun and learn with safe instruction and help from her…my favorite short"

"I am always impressed with how well done short films such as this one can tackle important themes within such a short timeframe. I wasn’t expecting to feel so many feelings about a raccoon but here I am. Loved it!"
