Synopsis

Dorothy Quick, a young girl, befriends the famous writer, Samuel "Mark Twain" Clemens, during the final years of his life. In 1908, young Dorothy Quick meets her idol, Mark Twain. And surprisingly, the author finds himself drawn to Dorothy and begins to treat her like the daughter he never had time for. Their special friendship brings Clemens out of his brooding and regrets, and teaches Dorothy about writing and life and how the two are really the same thing.
