The Earthling

Patrick Foley (William Holden, Stalag 17) is a complex man with much on his mind. Diagnosed with terminal cancer, he has returned to his native Australia in order to live out his final days in the peace and quiet of the wilderness.  But a chance encounter with Shawn Daley (Ricky Schroder, The Champ), a young boy who has just lost his parents in an accident, turns Patrick’s whole world upside down. The two lost souls find they have much in common and Patrick decides to mentor the boy in wilderness survival, providing him with life skills that will hold him in good stead. (Umbrella Entertainment)
