In 1950s Ohio, in the shadows of war and the stirrings of suburban life, two boys discover the wild freedom of youth and the risks that come with it. Jackie and his best friend Binky are street-smart, fearless, and endlessly curious. Together, they bike through city streets, plot backyard missions, and dream up grand adventures that take them from innocent mischief to moments of real danger. But just blocks away, a sinister underground world is thriving; one that exploits stolen children for labor and traffics drugs under the guise of industry. As the boys' childhood escapades start to brush against darker realities, they must confront choices that test their courage, loyalty, and understanding of right and wrong. Told with sharp wit, gritty realism, and a deeply nostalgic lens, Two Boys is a coming-of-age story that blends humor and heartbreak in equal measure. It's about growing up, waking up, and finding your moral compass; sometimes in the unlikeliest of places.
