An emotionally moving coming-of-age drama in the tradition of 'Another Country' and 'Maurice', starring Danny Dyer, Michael York and Shawn Hatosy.
Brendan Behan, a sixteen year-old republican, is going on a bombing mission from Ireland to Liverpool during the Second World War. His mission is thwarted when he is apprehended, charged and imprisoned in Borstal, a reform institution for young offenders in East Anglia, England.
At Borstal, Brendan is forced to live face-to-face with those he perceived as "the enemy," a confrontation that reveals deep inner conflict and forces a self-examination that is both traumatic and revealing. Events take an unexpected turn and Brendan is thrown into a complete spin.
In the emotional vortex, he finally faces up to the truth. 'Borstal Boy' is adapted from the acclaimed autobiographical novel by Irish Writer Brendan Behan, before becoming a Tony-winning play in the early 1970s.
