”Greatest is love”

A Nordic drama-western about distance, loneliness and rawness of love.

JONE (29) arrives in his old hometown to help his mother to move on with her life by declaring Jone’s missing younger brother dead. The motorbike found in the river throws Jone and the townsmen into a downward spiral through complex, already forgotten relationships towards the chilling stream, where forgiveness must be faced.

Jone Boy is a film with flawed, strong characters and an intimate and dynamic narrative that creates a story where the slight possibility of better is in each other of them.
