When he was in a ruined state with nightmares, he receives a call at midnight. When he peeps out of the window, Conor witnesses a tree-like monster calling him. Although Conor has a little fright, he thinks that the monster has come to save him. He reaches the monster that narrates stories to him. The monster makes him understand that the death exists and he has to deal with it, even he wishes or not.
Star Performances
Lewis MacDougall, the little guy, has performed his part well. He is flawless in expressing minute emotions. Felicity Jones comes as the mother of Lewis, who is fighting to the death. Liam Neeson has given his voice to the monster. Although he is not visually seen, he entertains the audiences through his voice and motion capture as the monster tree.
