THE MOVIE "HACHIKO"
THE MOVIE "HACHIKO": ALWAYS BY YOUR SIDE".
The story begins in an American elementary school, where the students in the class do an oral exercise about their favorite heroes. When it is Ronnie's turn, he surprises the whole class by proposing Hachiko, his grandfather's dog, as his hero.
An Akita puppy is sent by its Japanese breeder to the United States on assignment. But while transporting the dog, the crate falls off the vehicle and lands in a train station. There, a college professor named Parker Wilson (Richard Gere) finds the dog lost and slightly injured.
She tries to help him and find a place to leave it. She talks to the controller at the train station, but he doesn't want to give him to her, so she decides to take him home until she finds an owner to claim him.
Days go by and no one claims the puppy and no one wants to adopt him. Professor Parker gets attached to the pet, but his wife is against keeping it, until a nice bond began to be created between the pet and the professor, and his wife, seeing how attached her husband was to the puppy, ended up agreeing to let him stay with them.
After days of play and mutual affection, the teacher and puppy formed a strong bond. So much so that when he had to go to work, "Hachi", as he named his puppy, accompanied him to the train station every day. When he saw his owner disappear into the crowd, he would wait for him at the same station until they returned home from work to walk home together.
Parker had tried everything he could to keep his pet at home while he went to work, but nothing worked. The dog ended up running away to accompany him to the train station and would not move from there until his owner finished his work day and returned to the station.
One day, teaching at the university, Professor Parker suffered a heart attack and died. His dog continued to wait for him at the station, until a relative took him back home. Despite this, the next day Hachi escapes and returns to the station to wait for his master, when he sees that he does not arrive, he spends the day and night there.
Professor Parker's wife sells the house, moves in with her daughter and takes the dog with her. But still far from the house where they lived, the dog escapes on the way to the old house. However, seeing that another unknown family was living there, he returned to the train station in search of his beloved owner.
There he waits for hours, but when he sees that his master does not appear, he wanders around the area and sleeps under the wagons of an abandoned train. He survives thanks to a hot dog vendor, a friend of the deceased professor, who feeds him.
Years go by and Hachi still goes to the train station every morning to wait for his owner and so spends the long days of his life. The professor's family witnessed how after many years, Hachi was still waiting for his owner at the usual station, looking aged and weak.
Finally, one cold night under the cars of a train, Hachiko dies, dreaming moments before his owner's presence at the station. The professor's daughter tells her ten years old son the story of her father and his loyal pet. The boy learns what love and true loyalty are.
