The Rubber Tree is a 109-minute cinematic interview in which the great tree itself is given a voice. Rooted in the Amazon basin, the tree recounts its deep relationship with rainforest, rivers, and civilizations that first discovered latex’s protective and sacred powers. The dialogue explores how rubber sustained cultures, then fueled colonization, greed, and atrocities such as the Congo rubber terror under Leopold II. Yet alongside suffering, the film evokes beauty: white milk as sunlight, elasticity as a metaphor for consciousness. This haunting conversation reveals how one tree’s lifeblood reshaped human history and continues to mirror our collective destiny
