Synopsis:
Based on the novel by Forrest Carter, `The Education Of Little Tree` is a simple and touching tale set in the deep-south during the Depression. It tells the story of a young boy, Little Tree, who is sent to live in the Tennessee Mountains with his grandparents. On his arrival, Little Tree discovers he is half Cherokee and begins to learn the wisdom and way of life of the Cherokee, but the government places him in an Indian school, where he is abused physically and psychologically...

The film tackles the issue of the forced assimilation of Native Americans in a sensitive and dramatic manner.
