Synopsis

"All I ever wanted was a dad. Instead I got a son."

Feeling rejected by his own dad who pays him scant attention, Robbie seeks this out from an alternative source which results in him becoming a teenage dad at 14. Confronted with the additional responsibilities of having a baby son, Robbie’s life rapidly spirals out of control

With commendable performances from newcomer Kyle Ward as Robbie, and Ian Hart as his dad, A BOY CALLED DAD is a deeply moving and ultimately uplifting drama.
