The mischievous boy, Tom Sawyer (Jonathan Taylor Thomas) has just witness Injun Joe (Eric Schweig) murder someone.

When Tom makes friends with Huckleberry Finn (Brad Renfro) he has to choose whether to honour a friendship or honour an oath. You see an innocent drunk has been accused of the murder.

Now the two young friends set out to get some inconclusive evidence of what Tom witnessed and they get entangled in many an adventure doing so.

He does a good deed and everyone in town is proud of him, but Tom is frightened by Injun Joe and thinks he will be killed himself if he stands as witness to the trial.

Now comes the difficult decision, risk his own life to save that of an inncoent man, or confess to what he saw and risk what Injun Joe may do to him.
