Generational trauma is a strange beast, stalking us when we least expect it, and holding us accountable for sins we’re scarcely aware of. This sentiment is explored with great skill and restraint in “The Arborist,” which refuses to give in to heavy-handed symbolism even during its most emotionally charged moments. - High On Films
