A gem worth the watch. Went in knowing very little about this film, but very satisfied to have discovered it. The director did a masterful job drawing emotions from the actors. I've never seen a film from Panama. However this film will make you want to go visit. The cinematography captures the scenery of the country beautifully. Very deserving of its accolades/highly recommend.

Always a fan of these kinds of movies! Jorge is a great filmmaker.

Stunning views of the city and a beautiful musical score enhance this bittersweet tale of generosity and love among three sophisticated friends in modern Panama. The story begins at Christmas with the Panamanian tradition of creating an effigy of Santa filled with fireworks and lighting it to set off the fireworks display. During this holiday season, an act of selflessness changes all three of their lives forever.

First of all, christmas theme in this movie was a perfect fit for the connection and feelings towards the characters, it made the whole situation (plot) more warm and nostalgic for the audience. Christmas has a representation of happiness in movies, but this film give you the whole expierence with pain / love / sensual / family / tradition, it hits you with so many different tones that you keep connected with the entire movie. I loved the connection of all the characters! The dynamic that Roy and Víctor had was very beautiful. I also liked how Alina fit in perfectly with both of them, her way of being made the coexistence between the three of them (very natural). 10/10 for sure

Low budget gay themed movie set around Christmas time in Panama. Roy, one of the lead characters, was gorgeous, but the actor playing him was weak at times - a little too monotone. The first half was rather charming and heartwarming, with an unexpected sudden twist. But the second half became unbelievably convoluted, disappointing and unreal. This could have been so much better.....we had ample eye candy and parts of the script were realistically written and acted. Favorite part was when Roy and Victor just came home from signing their contract. They were playful and the scene looked like real people playing real people. Never was there sex crazed human animals throwing themselves at each other like wild dogs and kissing madly as hard as possible. Yep....that's what directors typically show.....so it was nice to see a director trying to stay real at times. After looking at more stills of Michael Nelson, I have to chastise the Director for not showcasing Mr. Nelson more thoroughly and completely throughout the movie. Only once did we get to see an appealing, naturalistic part of Mr. Nelson....during the dance and subsequent breakfast scenes. The rest of the movie should have built upon showcasing the lovable personality and visual aspects of Nelson. Epic failure.....even if Nelson had some acting weaknesses.

THE FAMILY TREE Review Love is love is love. In Jorge Ameer's The Family Tree, this message is celebrated in the most beautiful of ways possible-loving, honest, funny... heartbreaking, because sometimes fluid love is that too. Life is just what it is, a combination of magic and tragic. The fluidity of love flows from up to down and then, maybe, up again. The Family Tree captures that amazingly! The journeys of the central characters, Roy, Victor and Alina, portrayed with such utterly believable naturalness by actors Michael Joseph Nelson, Keith Roenke and Anais Lucia, were bound to become intertwined and warm your hearts and then break them with such shocking suddenness! Such is the amazing effect of this must-watch movie! So, if this indie film is seen by enough of us, this movie hands down with it message of fluid love, deserves a lot of recognition during this award season. It is that good!

The Family Tree is a very emotional movie since the story is very moving and grabs you from the beggining to the end. Very good performances and splendid soundtrack. Congratulationes to its Director Jorge Ameer, the hole cast and the tecnical team..

My family and I spend a lot of time looking for good movies we can all enjoy. More often than not coming to an agreement on a movie to watch is a battle on movie night. The Family Tree was an unexpected hit in our home and something worth checking out. My wife and I both were at the edge of our seats which is hard as we have different tastes. Definitely worth checking out if you want to enjoy something story driven.

The Family Tree is an epic film with landmark moments. Ameer, the cast, and his team, we believe, have a competitive chance for many awards. As its merits can not be denied. The Family Tree reflects a current segment of society youth. Who have been brave enough to acknowledge a condition of being that has long been a truth but shunned upon. They call it, being fluid. The ability to love someone completely without judgment and without limits, regardless of gender. When a person's "forever essence" is more important than what is limited about them. CBR
