I'd be lying if I said that before watching "City of Trees" I had been grouping it in with other corny lesbian Christmas movies. Not only did I love the movie, but it's writing, directing, and acting blew me away! Yes it's a low-budget, independent film, but not in a bad way, rather in a realistic way. It's a very relatable storyline for anyone who has moved away from their hometown after a less than stellar high school experience, only to return later in life and find that people grow-up, and maybe your worst enemies can actually become friends..or more. "City of Trees" is 100% worth the watch, as it is a well above-average, realistic LBGTQIA+ film that will leave you thinking "Wow, I didn't expect that!".
