[[ProtagonistTitle Charlie St. Cloud]], played by Creator/ZacEfron, is a boy with dreams, aspirations, and a close bond with his younger brother Sam. However, after "borrowing" a car leads to a major accident, that bond is put to the ultimate test; Charlie's near-death experience leaves him able to see ghosts, including his brother's, who did not survive the crash. Ridden with guilt and clinging to an old promise, Charlie grows up to be the caretaker to his hometown's cemetery, so that he can spend time with his brother's ghost every single afternoon. But when a yachtswoman named Tess Carroll enters his life, who may be a greater enigma than she first appears to be, Charlie must choose between clinging to his past or embracing the future.
