Boy Swallows Universe background

Boy Swallows Universe

In the 1980s, a precocious boy and his selective mute sibling set off on a journey through suburban life to find love, redemption, and justice after their family's home was shattered by a drug lord.

Eli Bell navigates a chaotic life in Brisbane in 1985, dealing drugs under multiple aliases and raising his siblings while haunted by past traumas. Despite his complicated circumstances, Eli strives to be a good man and understand what it means to live honestly. But fate seems intent on complicating matters further with Tytus Broz, the legendary drug dealer who once controlled Brisbane's underworld. Now, Eli must confront his father’s absence, rescue his mum from prison, face off against those responsible for destroying his world, and fall in love with the girl of his dreams during a harrowing Christmas Eve escape to Boggo Road Gaol.
