Director's Statement
Making Nobody's Boy was a ten year journey from conception to writing to shooting and to editing and I'm so happy that it's finally being recognized. Nobody's Boy is a hard film to watch but I also feel it's an important tale of redemption when your cards are down; that no matter how far you fall down that dark hole in life, there's always a way to climb out of it. Without darkness, there can't be light. I am proud to be the man behind Nobody's Boy and I hope you take away whatever message you find while watching it. Thank you.
