Info

The Boys' Village was once a village-style holiday camp located in West Aberthaw, on the south coast of Wales. Built in the 1920s as a holiday home for Welsh coalminers' sons, boasting a pool, sports yards and even a chapel of its own. Not much remains of its former glory, though. Shattered glass and debris are all over the place; graffiti on the walls. There are countless trap falls and opportunities for injury. A parent's nightmare, it can be heaven on earth for a certain kind of child. It more or less is for Kevin. He has been eleven years old for quite some time now. Has it been years or decades?

Boys Village Audience Reviews

TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film
Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Keira Brennan The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Patrick James This really is an excellent short film. So much is communicated by economic means.Much is made of the location, the ruins of St. Athan Boys Village which is in Vale of Glamorgan, Wales. One doorway of the ruin is made to look sinister and threatening. It is here that much will happen.The film explores a lot, but most notably the dynamic between the world we inhabit as a child and as a teenager. The two worlds are different sides of the same coin.There is a visual dialogue between these two worlds. The world of the child is trying to reach out to the world of the teenager.
Richard von Lust The setting, a derelict boy's holiday camp somewhere in the middle of nowhere, and the concept, the spirits of bygone occupants, provide a wonderful opportunity for excellent drama. But sadly this production simply fails to exploit the potential of the circumstances. The first few minutes of any short movie are crucial to establish interest but I found myself thinking of something else after two minutes and actually yawning after five. Even a masturbation scene, presumably inserted to inject more interest, simply fails fails to deliver the goods and I was left wondering how so much time and effort could be given to something so boring.
