Cinema & Conversation: The New Boy

Join us at Jesuit Retreat Center each month for films that inspire and entertain.

After each movie, there will be time for conversation and questions. We continue in September with the 2023 film, The New Boy.

The New Boy is about a young Aboriginal boy who arrives at a remote monastery in the Australian outback during World War II. A nun takes him in, and while he seems quiet at first, strange things start to happen around him. The story shows the struggle between his native beliefs and the Christian beliefs of the monastery. It’s a thoughtful movie that looks at big ideas like faith, identity, and fitting in.
