Bigfoot and the Wild Boys

Two wild boys. No plan. One unforgettable adventure.

Joe is tired of feeling invisible at school. When he hears that Bigfoot might have been spotted in the nearby woods, he spies his chance to become as legendary as the famous cryptid.

Joe convinces his best friend Tiago to search for Bigfoot together, and they set off for the woods with two sandwiches, a tube of Pringles, and zero survival skills. What could possibly go wrong?
