CGiii Comment

Nothing a major re-write [and a re-think] couldn't fix...and, just a little too theatrical for film.

Pretty good cinematography though.

Told in four chapters Batty Boy is the coming out journey from childhood to adulthood of Dolcie Woods; a black British Caribbean boy growing up in North London. His epic journey to self love is highly influenced by the homophobic culture and community he wants to be accepted by.
