After that summer nothing would ever be the same.
Based on the novel December Boys by Michael Noonan, December Boys is a coming-of-age story about a group of four adolescent orphans who are all born in the same month. The orphans, who are best friends, leave their orphanage for a holiday by the sea. The boys learn of a rumour about two of the seaside residents, who are unable to fall pregnant, possibly adopting one of the orphans.
As the boys compete to become the "most adoptable" by the residents with hopes to gain a real family, tension rises among the orphans severely testing their friendships. "Maps" (Daniel Radcliffe) has to make the choice between "growing up" and staying big brother to the other lads.
