Synopsis "The Old Elm Tree (in English)"
Ten different people -- each living in a different decade -- must face a personal crisis...and all experience a significant event at The Old Elm Tree which stands watch over the town. In 1905, Clementine Feeny is trapped in a loveless marriage. In 1915, heiress Bergthora Stillaway contends with the strict norms of a man's world. In 1925, Hortense Lincoln fights for justice in the face of racism. In 1935, Rupert Huckle copes with the loneliness of being mentally challenged. In 1945, war hero Alphonsus Ryan returns to the home front, but wages a new battle against haunting memories. In 1955, the unlucky Penina Klapper struggles with her homely visage in a world that worships beauty. In 1965, Caleb Spicer confronts his sexual awakening as high school ends. In 1975, dentist Oliver Zammit finds himself recovering from a devastating car crash. In 1985, professor Martha Vandemeer's campaign to preserve the elm tree may suffer when she discovers a secret that could destroy her marriage. And in 1995, Zephyr Meadows learns she is being stalked. This chronicle of the 20th Century dives headfirst into human emotion and perception with its poignant look at people searching for control of their destiny. As our inherent need to be accepted and the pursuit of happiness is explored through unforgettable characters and shocking twists, The Old Elm Tree will make you think, reflect and weep. Ten people. Overcoming fear. Seeking validation. Desperate to belong. Please enjoy this short video promotion at: https: //www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzbN8oOXbXo
