For Eddie Ayers (Adam Taylor Gordon), the summer does not start well. Already having few friends and a troubled relationship with his father (Ed Begley Jr.), Eddie sinks to new lows when he is humiliated by the local bully at Bear Scout camp. Returning home, Eddie has no idea how his fortunes are about to change. Inspired by an ancient Swiss legend, and with the help of camp counselor (Cindy Williams), his new friend Deena with her vast array of gadgets, and Deena’s two skateboard-prodigy twin brothers, Eddie sets out to solve a mystery that catapults him on an unexpected, summer-long journey. Along the way, Eddie defeats the bullies, finds true friendship, and forever changes the power dynamics of his small town. In the end, he is forced to overcome the ultimate hurdle, his own self-doubt. The Legend of William Tell is a modern take on a timeless legend; a tale of friendship and self-discovery, a classic underdog story in its own right.
