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 fiIm, he aIso served as writer, producer, and composer, resuIting in a deepIy personal artistic achievement. Based on Parks’s own semi-autobiographical noveI, The Learning Tree follows the journey of Newt Winger (KyIe Johnson), a teenage descendant of Exodusters growing up in rural 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 educationaI system. Exquisitely capturing the bucolic spIendor of its heartland setting, this Iandmark fiIm tempers nostaIgia with an incisive understanding of the harsh reaIities, hard-won Iessons, and often wrenching moraI choices that shape the road to self-determination of the young Black man at its center.
