The Beaver follows the life of depressed toy executive Walter Black (Gibson) who, after being kicked out by his wife, takes on a new persona in which he communicates through a beaver hand puppet. His wife (Foster) and son (Yelchin) are skeptical, but try to accept Walter as a favor to their younger son, who loves the beaver. (official distributor synopsis)
