Synopsis

It is 1984, and a boy named Boy lives in Raukokore, a small coastal town in New Zealand, with his brother Rocky and their grandmother. Boy is a talented artist and a big fan of Michael Jackson. Though he is a cheery, fun-loving kid, with an extraordinary imagination, there is something missing from Boy's life - his father Alamein, an eccentric rogue, who is serving a prison sentence. When Alamein suddenly shows up, in search of buried treasure, Boy seizes the opportunity to get to know him properly; the question is, is Alamein ready to truly become Boy's dad?

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."

- Marlon Perkins, Teacher, Whitstable and Seasalter Endowed CofE Junior School, Kent
