A father's vigilante act after his son's alleged assault leaves a suspected pedophile dead, blurring lines of justice and vengeance in a high-rise community.
Man and Boy is a gripping British short film about a father whose suspicion that his son has been abused pushes him toward vigilante violence. David Leon and Marcus McSweeney create a tense moral trap, helped enormously by Eddie Marsan’s forceful performance. The film is confrontational, but its real strength lies in how quickly certainty becomes dangerous.
