In Hachi: A Dog's Tale, Professor Parker Wilson (Gere), a distinguished scholar, discovers a lost Akita puppy at the railroad station on his way home from work. Despite initial objections from Wilson's wife Cate (Allen), Hachi endears himself into the Wilson family and grows to be Parker's loyal companion. As their bond grows deeper, a beautiful relationship unfolds, embodying the true spirit of family and loyalty, while inspiring the hearts of an entire town. (Gary Reber)
