The Big Picture Life can be unfair at times, and sometimes too unfair. In Nowhere Special, a father struggles with one of the hardest decisions a parent would have to make for their child. James Norton stars as John, a 35-year-old window cleaner, who has dedicated his life to bringing up his 4-year-old son, Michael, after the child's mother left them soon after giving birth.
The somber trailer opens with father and son doing typical father-son things. It is told and narrated from John's point of view. Being a single parent, John must take on all the duties, including reading a bedtime story for his son. John is dealing with something evidenced by the way he carries himself. He doesn't seem relaxed and appears somehow tired all the time.
When John takes some pills, he mentions death in narration, and then it becomes clear that he is sick. John is trying to protect his son from the harsh realities that death presents for as long as possible. But immediately, John must find his son a good permanent home and have him settle in before he passes away. And thus, he embarks on a quest to find somewhere special enough for his beloved son.
Who Is Behind 'Nowhere Special'? Uberto Pasolini serves as the film's director, starring Norton as John and Daniel Lamont as Michael. Distribution rights were acquired by Cohen Media Group and Curzon, with the film's theatrical release date set for April 26. It first premiered at the Venice Film Festival 2020, and saw a U.K. release in 2021.
