Based on the #1 New York Times bestseller “A Man Called Ove,” “A Man Called Otto” tells the story of Otto Anderson (Tom Hanks), a grump who no longer sees purpose in his life following the loss of his wife. Otto is ready to end it all, but his plans are interrupted when a lively young family moves in next door, and he meets his match in quick-witted Marisol. She challenges him to see life differently, leading to an unlikely friendship that turns his world around.
Directed by Marc Forster (“Finding Neverland”) and written by Academy Award nominee David Magee (“Life of Pi”, “Finding Neverland”) “A Man Called Otto” is a heartwarming and funny story about love, loss, and life — and shows that family can sometimes be found in the most unexpected places.
