"The New Boy" debuts with first clip at Cannes Un Certain Regard.

The New Boy, directed by Warwick Thornton, is set to premiere at Cannes Un Certain Regard. The film stars Cate Blanchett as a nun who takes in an Aboriginal boy with special powers. The boy's Indigenous spirituality clashes with the mission's Christianity, and his powers become a threat. Blanchett's character must choose between her faith and the truth embodied in the boy. The film explores the extinction of a sustainable religion by Christianity.
