Amélie is seven months pregnant—and has just inherited land from the father she never knew. After a journey back to the village where she was born, she sets out to discover why her parents mysteriously abandoned her—and learns that her story is intimately linked to the village legends.
A story told in a unique way
With a story that unfolds through the point of view of five different characters, ROOTS uses unique puzzle-piece storytelling to solve Amélie’s mystery. During the five chapters, scenes recur, each time giving the audience a fresh perspective—and a new interpretation.
This story is about the ROOTS that bind us to each other. All the “meaningful coincidences” in the film are caused by the old tree that guards the land Amélie has inherited.
