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.
