England, the summer of ’66 and the country is about to be consumed by World Cup
Fever. For 12-year-old Bernie (GREGG SULKIN), the biggest day of his life is looming, the
day he becomes a man - his Bar Mitzvah. However Bernie’s North London family seems a little distracted. Between worrying about Manny and Bernie’s older brother Alvie (BEN NEWTON), mother Esther (HELENA BONHAM CARTER) barely has time to notice her better behaved younger son. Bernie believes his Bar Mitzvah is about to change all this. He’ll no longer be the kid everyone ignores, and he envisions and begins to plan the perfect ceremony and reception, where everyone assembled will acknowledge his new status as a man. Unfortunately for Bernie, things don’t quite go according to plan. In Theatres August 1st!
