“Boy A” is a fictional story starring Andrew Garfield (Lions for Lambs) as Jack. His involvement in the murder of another child means Jack, at 24, has spent most of his young life in juvenile prisons. Released from prison into an unrecognizable adult world, Jack is given a new name, new job, new home; a new life. But anonymity is both a blessing and a curse as Jack has to contend with not being able to tell the people he gets to know, and love, of his true past and the monstrous secret he must keep hidden.

The drama also stars acclaimed actor and director Peter Mullan (“The Magdalene Sisters,” “Children of Men”) as Terry, Jack’s care worker and the only person he can really trust.

Co-starring Shaun Evans (“Teachers”) and Katie Lyons (“Green Wing”), “Boy A” is based on the award-winning novel by Jonathan Trigell, has been adapted for the screen by writer Mark O’Rowe and is directed by John Crowley (“Pinter’s Celebration,” “Intermission”).

The film is set to be released on JULY 23, 2008 in selective theatres. Movie trailer and more information to follow shortly.
