SUMMARY:Family Tree Movie Screening
DESCRIPTION:September 12th\, kicks off the South Arts Southern Circuit Tour of Independent Filmmakers here in Jackson with a FREE screening of #FamilyTreeMovie at the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science at 7 p.m.\n\nFamily Tree explores sustainable forestry in North Carolina through the stories of two Black families working to preserve their land and legacy. Family Tree’s approach reveals the vast task of maintaining the land while navigating challenging family dynamics\, unscrupulous developers\, and changing environmental needs. The forest itself and the beauty of its changing seasons become a primary character in this family drama. Family Tree is a beautiful\, inspiring\, and heart-warming documentary about the ways in which thoughtful\, sustainable land management is not only good for the environment but also for the individuals and families that work and care for the land.\n\nYou can register for your free tickets here: https://www.eventcreate.com/e/familytree (or scan the QR code in the poster).\n\nThe program is made possible through a partnership with the National Endowment for the Arts\, Mississippi Film Office\, Mississippi Humanities Council and Volunteer Mississippi.
