Wild Bill

After serving a prison sentence, Bill connects with his son, Jimmy, who soon gets in trouble with his old cohorts. Bill has to choose between helping Jimmy and violating his parole, or letting his son fend for himself — and remaining free.

Out on parole after 8 years inside, Bill Hayward (Charlie Creed-Miles) returns home to find his now 11- and 15-year-old sons abandoned by their mother and fending for themselves. Unwilling to play Dad, an uncaring Bill is determined to move on. Although Dean (Will Poulter) the older boy has found a job and is doing his best to be a father to his younger brother Jimmy (Sammy Williams), the arrival of Bill brings them to the attention of social services. With the danger of being put into care looming, Dean forces his feckless dad to stay by threatening to grass him up for dealing. If there’s one thing Bill doesn’t want it’s to go back to prison. He reluctantly agrees to stay for a week to help fool social services that the boys are being cared for. Having never really grown up himself, Bill quickly connects with Jimmy and, through this new bond, starts to realize what he’s been missing. He has a family, a place in the world. He is a father. However, their happy family set-up is short lived when Jimmy gets into trouble with Bill’s dangerous old cohorts. To sort it out would breach the terms of his license and risk sending him back to jail. Bill’s next steps will show what sort of a dad he wants to be – a good one or a free one.
