Here is the synopsis for “We Bought a Zoo”:

“We Bought a Zoo” is a funny, inspiring and true story about the magical power of family to persevere in the face of extraordinary challenges. This is acclaimed filmmaker Cameron Crowe’s (“Jerry Maguire”) first motion picture for all audiences and stars Matt Damon, Scarlett Johansson and Thomas Haden Church.

Damon portrays a single dad who – looking to give his family a much-needed fresh start – moves to a home situated in the middle of a zoo. He and his two children attempt to bring it back to its once-glorious state. The film weaves together warmth, laughter and a spirit of optimism that is perfect for the holiday season.

What’s the greatest family challenge you’ve overcome?

Death’s in the family. Especially when a loved one remarries right before death and gives all of his possessions and money to a new family member VS his biological family that has been there for him his whole life.

The greatest I’ve overcome is my mother’s illness and death. It was devastating, but time heals all wounds.

Sad Passing

My mom passed away a few months ago from pancreatic cancer. She never complained and was optimistic to the very end. She showed us what grace is and we are gratefull.

What’s the greatest family challenge you’ve overcome?

Distance. When I was younger, my father had to be away for 5 years. My mother and I did not get to see him at all during that period. It was very tough but we got through it, and it has made us a stronger family.
