The residents of a small, decrepit town come to terms with the disappearance of a young girl. When a young man takes up the search, he discovers some dark secrets in the place he calls home.

Told through a series of vignettes, the residents of Ballymoss find odd and often destructive ways of passing time in a place that seems to have been forgotten.

Shot on VHS and Hi8 tapes, Idiot Boy is a unique and visceral story of darkness, black comedy and horror.
