Otto (Tom Hanks) is a grumpy isolated widower with staunch principles, strict routines and a short fuse, who gives everyone in his neighborhood a hard time as he watches over it like a hawk. Just as it seems like he's finally given up on life, an unlikely and reluctant friendship develops with his new neighbors.

Little by little, Otto undergoes a subtle transformation... but is he really capable of change?

The film will be directed by Marc Forster.

The film stars Tom Hanks, Mariana Trevi ±o, Rachel Keller and Manuel Garcia-Rulfo.
