Summary
Kazan's initial directorial effort tells the story of an impoverished Irish family living in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn during the first years of the twentieth century. It traces the life of the 12-year-old daughter as she copes with the trials and disappointments of her environment, particularly her bittersweet relationship with an alcoholic father. The tree of the title is the one she observes from her window and which symbolizes her developing maturity. (Circulates)
