Description
In 1986, Eddie and his friends are just kids on the verge of adolescence. They spend their days biking around their sleepy English village and looking for any taste of excitement they can get. The chalk men are their secret code: little chalk stick figures they leave for one another as messages only they can understand. But then a mysterious chalk man leads them right to a dismembered body, and nothing is ever the same. In 2016, Eddie is fully grown, and thinks he's put his past behind him. But then he gets a letter in the mail, containing a single chalk stick figure. When it turns out that his friends got the same message, they think it could be a prank . . . until one of them turns up dead. That's when Eddie realizes that saving himself means finally figuring out what really happened all those years ago.
Description
En 1986, Eddie y sus amigos son solo niños al borde de la adolescencia. Pasan sus días haciendo ciclismo alrededor de su tranquilo pueblo inglés y buscando el sabor de la emoción que pueden obtener. Los hombres de tiza son su código secreto: pequeñas figuras de tiza que se dejan la una a la otra como mensajes que solo ellos pueden entender. Pero luego un misterioso hombre de tiza los lleva directamente a un cuerpo desmembrado, y nada es lo mismo. En 2016, Eddie ha crecido por completo y cree que ha dejado atrás su pasado. Pero luego recibe una carta en el correo, que contiene una sola figura de tiza. Cuando resulta que sus amigos recibieron el mismo mensaje, piensan que podría ser una broma. . . Hasta que uno de ellos aparece muerto. Ahí es cuando Eddie se da cuenta de que salvarse a sí mismo significa finalmente descubrir lo que realmente sucedió hace tantos años.
