Based on Brendan Behan's acclaimed autobiography and directed by Peter Sheridan,
Borstal Boy is a hard-hitting, rites-of-passage story where the harsh realities of prison life are revealed.
Brendan is a teenage Republican going on a bombing mission from Ireland to Liverpool during World War II. His mission is thwarted when he is apprehended, charged and imprisoned in Borstal, a reform institution for young offenders in England.
Locked in close quarters Brendan is forced to live face-to-face with those he perceives as "the enemy".
