Born out of the ideas behind The PappyShow theatre company's award-winning stage show (The Barbican, Vaults Festival), BOYS the film is devised by and stars a group of young men of colour. BOYS the film is a hybrid, blurring the lines between documentary, fiction and imagination. It's improvisation, play and time spent with true friends. BOYS is the playfulness and pressure of being a boy, trying to be a man; the bright, bold colour of youth bursting through.
Directed by: Kane Husbands and Celia Wilis
I was bought onto BOYS to work closely with the tight cast of the theatre show of the same name. With very limited resources and crew support (thank you AC Jojo Bossman!) we captured some beautiful stuff. The priority was to allow the dynamic and explosive energy of the boys themselves to transfer onto screen.
