About a Boy

Will Freeman leads an uncomplicated life filled with leisure, romantic encounters and financial abundance after his hit song skyrockets him into fame. He is single and unemployed but wouldn't trade it for the world until Fiona and her 11-year-old son Marcus turn up as neighbors. Their frequent visits to Will's house initially test his patience, but he soon finds an unexpected advantage in their relationship - women are drawn to responsible fathers like him. This leads to a deal where Marcus pretends to be Will's son and gains access to Will's house. Surprisingly, the young boy's company becomes more enjoyable than anticipated, and Will even starts taking care of Marcus. Through this atypical friendship, he learns valuable life lessons on self-discovery and empathy that he never imagined possible.
