The Denver Film Society entertains, educates, provokes, persuades, moves and motivates. The cinema's potential to transform as well as reflect society in all its diversity is what the Denver Film Society aims to recognize and realize. Since 1978, the DFS has worked to promote the medium as both an art form and a civic forum, developing a program that includes year-round screenings, community outreach projects and renowned special events. It is, in fact, the only nonprofit organization in Colorado dedicated to engaging both its members and the general public in a lifelong, life-altering relationship with an understanding of film and film culture. The twin pillars it has built on the foundation of this vision are the award-winning Starz Denver Film Festival, now in its third decade, and the Denver FilmCenter.
Nominated for three Academy Awards, including Best Picture, "The Tree of Life" is the impressionistic story of a Midwestern family in the 1950s. The film follows the life journey of the eldest son, Jack, through the innocence of childhood to his disillusioned adult years as he tries to reconcile a complicated relationship with his father. Jack finds himself a lost soul in the modern world, seeking answers to the origins and meaning of life while questioning the existence of faith. We see how both brute nature and spiritual grade shape not only our lives as individuals and families, but all life. Director: Terrence Malick Cast: Brad Pitt, Sean Penn, Joanna Going, Fiona Shaw, Jackson Hurst Website: www.foxsearchlight.com/thetreeoflife
