A modern Mark Twain style adventure story, THE PEANUT BUTTER FALCON tells the story of Zak ( Gottsagen ), a young man with Down syndrome, who runs away from a residential nursing home to follow his dream of attending the professional wrestling school of his idol, The Salt Water Redneck ( Thomas Haden Church ). A strange turn of events pairs him on the road with Tyler ( LaBeouf ), a small time outlaw on the run, who becomes Zak’s unlikely coach and ally. Together they wind through deltas, elude capture, drink whisky, find God, catch fish, and convince Eleanor ( Johnson ), a kind nursing home employee charged with Zak’s return, to join them on their journey. Roadside Attractions, Armory Films and Endeavor Content will release The Peanut Butter Falcon in theaters August 9 Discuss this with fellow SJF fans on Facebook .
