Big Eden is a tiny town tucked away in the timberland of Northwestern Montana, where cowboys lounge on the porch of the general store to pass the time away. It’s also the childhood home of Henry Hart (Ayre Gross), a successful but lonely New York artist, who returns after years away to care for his ailing grandfather.
Big Eden is a uniquely American fable about home and family. It hits upon the universal longing and hope we each have for finding a place where we are loved and the unconditional desire to see those we love find happiness.
