“Tapping in to primal fears of professional ineptitude and social rejection with an almost sadistic meticulousness, The Forest for the Trees is a precisely modulated first film.”
—Variety
In this Sundance Special Jury Prize winner, a young idealistic teacher from the country starts her first job at a high school in the city. Eager to make a good impression on those around her, she instead finds herself regularly humiliated by her students and unable to forge a connection with her peers and colleagues. This extraordinary debut led Cinema Scope to name Ade (Everyone Else) among the 50 best filmmakers under 50.
