Charlie (Zach Efron Zac Efron) and Sam are inseparable brothers. Just as they won the championship of the sailing race, Charlie received a full scholarship from Stanford University, making Charlie, who is handsome and unrestrained, a hot dream lover in girls' hearts. Full of longing for college life, Charlie took his brother Sam to drive out for a party the night before he left home, but unexpectedly, the drunken driver let the two brothers die and injure each other. Charlie, who survived, lived in pain and guilt and gave up his glorious life and great future to stay in town as a gravekeeper. He kept his agreement with Sam and practiced baseball with Sam's soul every evening, rain or shine. And this calm life and solid promise began to change after Charlie fell in love with the sexy and beautiful sailing girl Tess (Amanda Crewe Amanda Crew). The film is adapted from Ben Sherwood's best-selling novel of the same name, the Life and death of Charlie St. Crowder, which is also the second collaboration between actor Zach Efron and director Bohr Stiles.
