Boy The Movie | Trailer 2

Boy

Taika Waititi's second feature film (after Eagle vs. Shark and episodes of TV's Flight of the Conchords), a coming-of-age comedy set in the '80s, East Coast, New Zealand.

Boy (James Rolleston) is obsessed with Michael Jackson - in particular, his dance moves - and his little brother Rocky (Te Aho Eketone-Whitu) possibly possesses 'powers'. The pair are trying to find their potential (and the meaning of the word "potential") while living in the shadow of their larger-than-life dad Alamein (Waititi).

In Boy's eyes his dad is a hero: a deep-sea diver, war veteran, rugby captain and close relation of Michael Jackson. But in reality Alamein is doing seven years in jail and is a member of the three-man Crazy Horses gang. Now out of the can, dad returns home and Boy is confronted with the man he thought he remembered.
