Leaves of the Tree is a must-see movie. The enticing story touches on themes of spirituality, love, and redemption. The movie is largely character-driven, with each brought to life by the members of the superstar cast who live up to their reputations. The pacing of the movie is perfect, making the audience feel the transformation of the characters--and the world around them--as the story progresses.

The cinematography is reason alone to see this film. Beautiful shots of Sicily bring the setting of the film to life in a way that few independent films can. From rolling hills to beautiful ocean, it seems like a perfect setting for a movie with a deeply spiritual theme.

I highly recommend this film.
