More about The Crying Tree:
A Midwestern family relocates to the Pacific Northwest only to have their son murdered during a robbery. The culprit is sentenced to death, giving the Stanley family peace of mind that justice has been served. However, as the execution date nears, each family member begins examining their own thoughts and emotions. The Crying Tree is a wrenching portrait of a family and forgiveness.
