Currently online is the trailer to 'Master Harold...and the Boys,' which stars Ving Rhames and Freddie Highmore.

Rhames plays the lead role in the big-screen adaptation of Athol Fugard's 1982 play, a role Danny Glover originated on Broadway.

Emmy Winner Lonny Price, who played opposite Glover in the Broadway play under Fugard's direction and directed the 2003 revival, makes his feature directorial debut with the film. Nicky Rebelo wrote the screen adaptation.

The story centers on Hally (played by Highmore), an adolescent white South African. He is stuck between his intolerant father's outlook of him and those of his caretaker, Sam (played by Rhames). Sam is a black waiter and Hally's friend and teacher. Hally is required to laugh at his father's racist jokes, and by contrast, Sam exposes Hally to uplifting experiences. One day Hally was terribly humiliated by his father and Sam shows Hally how to be proud of something he can achieve.

South African actor Patrick Mofokeng rounds out the cast as Willie, a younger, more lighthearted waiter who is preparing for a ballroom dancing competition.

There is no U.S release date set for the film as of yet.
