Thirteen-year-old Connor is lonely, bullied at school and trying to cope with his single mother’s terminal illness. Help arrives in the unlikely shape of a fantastic tree spirit. Light-years away from a conventional monster movie, this is more an allegory of grief and despair and the human ability to overcome them
