Boy oh boy

Welby Ing’s Boy won the Best Short Narrative Film award at the 2005 Cinequest Festival in San Jose, which qualifies it for consideration for next year’s Oscars. The film tells the story of a young male prostitute in small-town NZ, who tries to reveal the truth behind a fatal hit-and-run accident. New York’s Filmmaker Magazine describes Boy as “a haunting, visually inventive tale about coming of age and into sexuality.”
