Paul Connolly recalls his harrowing childhood growing up in a children's home following a police investigation into his boyhood friend's suicide. As Paul struggles to build a relationship with Anthea, he is forced to confront those responsible for his shattered childhood and the death of his friend. Based on true events.
"Inspired by the true story told in the book "Big Boys Don't Cry: An Amazing True Life Story" (also titled "Not Normal"), "Los Chicos No Lloran" is an independent, but well-made and chilling film about the abuses often committed in orphanage systems. In London, a discovery forces Paul Connolly (Michael Socha, from "Cita Sangrienta") to relive the painful memories of his childhood in an orphanage, where he witnessed a police investigation of a friend's suicide. With its subject matter, it is an intense, graphic, and at times very difficult movie to watch, but it is a sensitive and powerful portrayal of the ramifications of abuse and childhood trauma."
