Nathan (Asa Butterfield) is different. He has an amazing way with numbers - something which will one day lead him to huge success. But for now, Nathan is unable to talk to anyone other than his father, but after he is tragically killed in a car accident, Nathan feels alone. Fast forward a few years, Nathan can relate to no one and spends all his time working on maths equations. With help from his tutor, the lovable Humphreys (Rafe Spall) and his mother Julie (Sally Hawkins), Nathan gets into the prestigious International Mathematics Olympiad and takes a trip to Taiwan to train and hone his abilities. With a steadily growing relationship with Zhang Mei (Jo Yang), a fellow contestant, Nathan could be ready to learn to love.
Directed by documentary master Morgan Matthews ('Shooting Bigfoot', 'Britain in a Day') and written by James Graham ('Caught In A Trap') in his feature film debut, 'X + Y' is a touching exploration of a young boy with so-called 'special needs'. The drama has already landed an award at the 2014 Rome Film Fest, with Best Emerging Producer going to Laura Hastings-Smith. The film is scheduled to be released in the UK on March 13th 2015.
