From award winning artist turned director Sam Taylor-Wood and award-winning writer Matt Greenhalgh (Control), comes Nowhere Boy, a touching and compelling story chronicling music legend John Lennon’s formative years. John is a spirited teenager, curious, sharp and funny, growing up in the shattered city of Liverpool. His home life is a difficult one, lacking the stability that most children take for granted. Without a father and with his mother Julia absent for most of his childhood, John grows up with his aunt Mimi (Academy Award® Nominee Kristin Scott Thomas). After seeking to be reunited with his mother, he finds himself at the center of a struggle between Julia and Mimi, who compete for his love. As he yearns for a more conventional home life, John escapes into the world of American Rock and Roll. His fledgling genius finds a kindred spirit in the young Paul McCartney. But just as John’s new life begins, the truth about his past leads to a tragedy he would never escape.
