This event has passed

In a flashback, J.M. Barrie recalls turning his back on a passionless marriage to befriend four fatherless boys whom he meets in the park one day. In the course of the next forty years, he becomes the surrogate father in the Davies household and develops a platonic relationship with the boys’ mother Sylvia. While the boys are young, Barrie revels in their youth. When their mother dies, Barrie guides the boys to manhood. In the end he is left alone with the memory of his lost boys.
