The Savage
Synopsis
Blue Baker copes with the loss of his father and the torment of a local bully by writing a raw, visceral story. His narrative, filled with blood and adventure, soon takes on a life of its own. As his creation, a wild and dark 'savage,' begins to manifest in the real world, Blue questions the boundaries between his imagination and reality.
