Synopsis:
On a farm in remote Wisconsin, the mute and brilliant Edgar Sawtelle leads an idyllic life with his parents raising and training a unique breed of dog.
But when Edgar's uncle unexpectedly returns home, the scene is set for a family tragedy of Shakespearean proportions. Forced to flee into the wilderness, Edgar comes of age fighting for survival. But the questions he has left unanswered, and his devotion to the Sawtelle dogs, turn Edgar ever homeward.
The Story of Edgar Sawtelle is at once a brilliant retelling of an ancient story, a haunting exploration of a boy and the dogs he loves and an epic tale of devotion, betrayal and courage in the American heartland.
