Boy
The second feature from New Zealand's Taika Waititi (Thor: Ragnarok, Hunt for the Wilderpeople), BOY comes to the UK for it's first ever theatrical release.
Set 80s rural New Zealand, BOY is the hilarious and heartfelt coming-of-age tale about heroes, magic and Michael Jackson.
BOY is a dreamer who loves Michael Jackson. He lives with his brother ROCKY, a tribe of deserted cousins and his Nan.
Boy s other hero, his father, ALAMEIN, is the subject of Boy s fantasies, and he imagines him as a deep sea diver, war hero and a close relation of Michael Jackson (he can even dance like him). In reality Alamein is an inept, wannabe gangster who has been in jail for robbery.
When Alamein returns home after seven years away, Boy is forced to confront the man he thought he remembered, find his own potential and learn to get along without the hero he had been hoping for.
