      Sophie Monks Kaufman Little White Lies Tall as the Baobab Tree tells a fascinating and frustrating story that leaves you wondering what will happen next. Rated: 3/5 May 11, 2017 Full Review Ronnie Scheib Variety Chris Collins' serene lensing highlights the family's closeness and its connection to the environment, while Jay Wadley's African harp score adds to the pic's authenticity. May 11, 2017 Full Review Jamie S. Rich Oregonian Tall as the Baobab Tree considers every point of view in its drama, and avoids being preachy, letting the truth of the scenario speak for itself. Rated: 3/5 Oct 23, 2013 Full Review Jennifer Tate ViewLondon An appealing film that tackles the alarming subject of forced child marriage, but unfortunately director Jeremy Teicher struggles with extracting natural performances from his cast of local villagers. Rated: 3/5 Mar 27, 2013 Full Review Shaun Munro What Culture Simple, swift and a little sad, this debut is far from perfect, but shows real promise. Rated: 3/5 Oct 14, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews
