The Peanut Butter Falcon

Synopsis

THE PEANUT BUTTER FALCON is an adventure story that begins when Zak (Zack Gottsagen), a young man with Down syndrome, runs away from a nursing home where he lives to chase his dream of becoming a professional wrestler.

Through circumstances beyond their control Tyler (Shia LaBeouf), a small time outlaw on the run, becomes Zak’s unlikely coach and ally. Together they wind through deltas, elude capture, drink whisky, find God, catch fish, and convince Eleanor (Dakota Johnson), a kind nursing home employee with a story of her own, to join them on their journey.
