SYNOPSIS: A surreal fable set on the Canadian Prairie, The Nature of Nicholas is the tale of a young boy wrestling with an attraction to his best friend while tormented by visions of his dead father.

Confused about his sexual identity, 12-year-old Nicholas is battling with his intense attraction to Bobby, who seems more interested in befriending the girls at school.  To add to Nicholas' problems, his deceased father starts appearing to him in pursuit of a mysterious agenda.  Uncertain and afraid of losing his best friend, Nicholas summons up his courage to take a bold step - and his actions unleash a very strange monster.

EDITORIAL REVIEW: Featuring nuanced performances from its young actors, The Nature of Nicholas is an eerie and haunting coming of age story about the tumult of budding sexuality and a boy's struggle to reconcile his desire with what's expected of him.
