WALTER – Earth Day Goes Wild
Set in a world driven by visual storytelling, where humor and emotion are conveyed through images, Walter – Earth Day goes Wild! follows Walter, a clever recycler who approaches Earth Day with obsessive devotion. His carefully orchestrated routine begins to unravel when he is tormented by Jack, a mischievous teenage boy, and emotionally unsettled by Mélanie, Jack’s mother, whom he slowly falls in love with.
All paths converge at Mélanie’s family-owned golf course, where the annual Earth Day tournament is being held under the honorary presidency of Charles Olsen, Walter’s environmental idol and Nobel Prize laureate. Through a series of visually driven, comedic, and over-the-top situations, Walter uncovers a secret plot by Olsen to exploit Mélanie’s forest for an absurd industrial project.
Against all odds, Walter and Jack join forces to expose the truth and protect the forest, as Walter discovers that love can emerge where he least expects it. A warm and humorous human adventure that gently pokes fun at human flaws and leaves audiences smiling as they exit the theater.
