John, a window cleaner, devotes his life to raising his 4-year-old son Michael, as the child’s mother left them immediately after his birth. But John only has a few months to live. Since he has no family to turn to, he will spend the days left to him looking for a new family to adopt Micheal.
No wonder that this compassionate, poignant portrait of fatherhood was met with unanimous critical acclaim. James Norton—best known to Brits as an actor of the small screen—lends impressive, quiet restraint to Nowhere Special, a heart-rending narrative of struggle redolent of the great Ken Loach.
