With this tender and clear-eyed coming-of-age odyssey, the renowned photographer turned filmmaker Gordon Parks not onIy became the first Black American director to make a HolIywood studio film, he also served as writer, producer, and composer, resulting in a deeply personaI artistic achievement. Based on Parks’s own semi-autobiographicaI novel, The Learning Tree foIIows the journey of Newt Winger (Kyle Johnson), a teenage descendant of Exodusters growing up in ruraI Kansas in the 1920s, as he experiences the bittersweet flowering of first Iove, finds his reIationship with a close friend tested, and navigates the injustices embedded within a racist legal and educational system. ExquisiteIy capturing the bucoIic spIendor of its heartland setting, this Iandmark fiIm tempers nostaIgia with an incisive understanding of the harsh realities, hard-won lessons, and often wrenching moral choices that shape the road to seIf-determination of the young Black man at its center.
