Ernest Hemingway said, “All modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn". One hundred years after its author’s death, this classic remains remarkably modern and poignantly relevant. In this new edition, Elijah Wood reads Huck in a youthful voice that may be the closest interpretation to Twain’s original intent. His performance captures the excitement and confusion of adolescence and adventure.

Pour échapper à un père toujours plus violent, Huckleberry Finn décide de disparaître. Se faisant passer pour mort, le jeune garçon croise la route du vieux Jim, un esclave évadé. Ensemble, les fugitifs vont descendre le Mississipi en radeau, affronter les bandits et un duo de redoutables escrocs. Mais un danger plus grand les menace : une prime est offerte pour la capture de Jim.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is the comic masterpiece of Samuel Langhorne Clemens, who trained as a river-boat pilot (from which experience he took his pen-name, Mark Twain). His most famous book describes a boy's journey down the Mississippi aboard a raft with the runaway black slave Jim.

Huckleberry Finn escapes his abusive father and the stifling rules of civilized society by faking his own death. Fleeing down the Mississippi River, he joins forces with Jim, a runaway slave desperately seeking his freedom. Together, they navigate a raft through the deep American South, facing dangerous family feuds, cunning con artists, and profound moral dilemmas. As Huck questions the prejudices he was raised with, he must choose between the law and loyalty to his friend. This modern adaptation revives Twain's classic tale of rebellion and friendship.

Fleeing the respectable society that wants to "sivilize" him, Huck Finn shoves off with Jim on a rhapsodic raft journey down the Mississippi River. The two bind themselves to one another, becoming intimate friends and agreeing "there warn't no home like a raft, after all. Other places do seem so cramped up and smothery, but a raft don't. You feel mighty free and easy and comfortable on a raft".

The story is set along the Mississippi River in Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky and Arkansas around 1840. It depicts the development of Huckleberry (Huck) Finn, a boy about thirteen years old.

A natural storyteller and raconteur in his own right - just listen to Paddle Your Own Canoe and Gumption - actor, comedian, carpenter, and all-around manly man Nick Offerman (Parks and Recreation) brings his distinctive baritone and a fine-tuned comic versatility to Twain's writing. In a knockout performance, he doesn't so much as read Twain's words as he does rejoice in them, delighting in the hijinks of Tom - whom he lovingly refers to as a "great scam artist" and "true American hero".
