Taika Waititi's nostalgic comedy about an eleven-year-old Michael Jackson fan living on a remote farm in 1984 quickly became the highest-grossing New Zealand film of all time.

Left in charge of his younger brother and cousins while his grandmother attends a funeral, Boy (James Rolleston) wistfully dreams of the father he's never known — only to have his illusions shattered when his dad returns from prison, motley crew in tow, looking to recover a bag of cash he buried years ago. Warm and wickedly funny, making inventive use of fantasy sequences and whimsical animations, Boy is "an alternately zany, sentimental, and remarkably insightful look at the quirks of a child's mind" (Eric Kohn, indieWIRE).
