My Boy is an intimate, character-driven drama about redemption and reconciliation. DWAYNE, recently released from prison, arrives home determined to reconnect with his teenage son, TJ, and ex-partner, KATIE.
However, the scars of abandonment run deep, and Dwayne’s cocky bravado quickly gives way to vulnerability as he faces TJ’s resentment and Katie’s guarded pragmatism. Through moments of conflict, awkward attempts at bonding, and flashes of the life they once shared, the family must navigate their fractured relationships.
As Dwayne and TJ find unexpected common ground in small, everyday gestures, the film culminates in a hopeful but realistic portrayal of rebuilding trust, one step at a time.
