Fadel crafts canes for elderly villagers in the mountains of Lebanon. When Fadel finds the perfect branch to make his next masterpiece, he engages in a contest of wills with his neighbors, who regard the tree as a religious shrine. The Oak Tree is a film about blind faith and extremism in an age of fake news.
