A TREE OF LIFE
2021 ‧ Documentary Film‧ 80 mins
Synopsis:
In Pittsburgh in 2018, a white supremacist opened fire at the Tree of Life Synagogue in the deadliest antisemitic attack in American history. The survivors recount the harrowing experience and detail how their lives have fundamentally changed. A Tree of Life confronts the "moral decay of humanity" and takes a larger look at the hate-based crisis stemming from the political climate.
As the first film to document the survivor’s stories and the only documentary with this level of personal access to the survivors and families of the victims, viewers will experience first-hand how the lives of those directly affected have fundamentally changed and how the Pittsburgh community and the congregations set out on a path towards healing.
