Nowhere Special

Director
Uberto Pasolini
Certificate
12A
Running Time
96 mins

John (James Norton) is a 35-year-old window cleaner who’s completely dedicated to rasing his four-year-old son (Daniel Lamont). Trouble is, John is also suffering from an unspecified terminal illness. So he embarks on a mission to find a new family to adopt and care for the lad after he croaks.

Based on a true story, Uberto Pasolini‘s heartfelt drama works hard to avoid the cliches of the burgeoning terminal illness weepie genre.
