Two-time Oscar winner Jodie Foster directs and co-stars with fellow two-time Oscar winner Mel Gibson in The Beaver, an emotional story about a man on a journey to re-discover his family and re-start his life.
Plagued by his own demons, Walter Black was once a successful toy executive and family man who now suffers from depression.
No matter what he tries, Walter cannot seem to get himself back on track - until a beaver hand puppet enters his life.
