Synopsis:
Awarded the Special Jury Prize at the Venice Film Festival, 'Bad Boy Bubby' with its hard-hitting content of deprivation, mental illness and incest, shocked its audiences to become one of the most daring and controversial cult films of the 1990s.
Nicholas Hope gives an astonishing performance as Bubby, a demented man-child kept locked his entire life in a squalid apartment by his depraved mother who uses him for sex. When Bubby - who can only communicate by mimicking what others say and do - escapes into the outside world, he soon discovers young women, crime, rock 'n' roll, and pizza. Will this naive 'mad bastard' be destroyed by the realities of our cruel world, or does a higher calling ultimately await him in the most unlikely place of all?
