Fire Boy is a distinctive ‘coming-of-age’ story with universal appeal that invites audiences into the comedic, colourful and unique world of urban Aboriginal Australia.

The film is an ironic tale that twists the classic fish-out-of-water scenario in which the traditional owners of the land have become aliens in their own country.

Fire Boy is a heart-felt comedy about a young black boy who is lost and through connecting with his elders and traditional culture finds his place and way in the world.
