Jason Silverman is a single dad who works as an animal trainer. Quite involuntarily he finds himself witnessing the rise to global stardom of one of his dogs, clumsy and funny St. Bernard, Beethoven, who is picked to star in a big Hollywood movie. Of course fame isn’t a private matter and some nasty chaps decide to kidnap the new and unusual celebrity. BEETHOVEN’S BIG BREAK follows on from the worldwide success of the franchise that brought the lovely St. Bernard of the same name to instant fame and it playfully pokes fun at it.
