SYNOPSIS
Goodbye Boys is a coming-of-age drama written and directed by BERNARD CHAULY. What happens when a gang of Form Five Ipoh boys embark on a 100km hike to fulfill a King Scouts requirement but come back on the road to becoming men? Goodbye Boys is a simple journey with complicated realisations. Set in 1990, Malaysia , it is about a gang of pimply guys with raging hormones, undecided ambitions and formative identities. They set out on a gruelling 5-day journey through the Kinta Valley – once the richest tin deposit in the world, now an abandoned plain - that changes friendships and selves. It’s a group expedition with individual goals. The harsh realisation is that although we’re a troop/patrol, we’re not necessarily a ‘brotherhood’. Friends are important but eventually, it’s not always about togetherness. Memorable camaraderie, yes, but each and everyone needs to grow up, get real. Stand on your own two feet, walk your own walk. Some will return mini-heroes, content with being welcomed by their dream dates at the 5th Form Farewell Prom organised by the Ipoh Convent girls. Others will realise that the expedition is the beginning of other things in life… the need to escape a small town. (Film Rating: 18)
