Queen Elizabeth I of England and Mary Queen of Scots were two of recorded history's most significant, most legendary rivals—although they never met. Elizabeth was the childless “virgin” queen in one castle: bawdy, brilliant, tactical and cynical. On the other hand, Mary is feminine, charming, romantic and reckless. Their decades-long battle over the English crown would end with Mary’s beheading at Fotheringhay Castle—with Elizabeth’s blessing—in 1587. But the two cousins’ tortured relationship was determined long before, during childhoods, so dissimilar and defining that they would inform both Queens’ characters—and seal Mary’s tragic fate. The rivalry between the two queens was marked by imprisonment, escape and execution.

Blue Baby follows formerly incarcerated youth through a prison alternative known as Boys Town. The documentary introduces eight offenders, showing the personal and societal shortcomings that led to their incarceration and then their subsequent enrollment at Boys Town. It captures their experiences over four years as they struggle toward graduation and return to public life. The film is unafraid to confront the harsh realities and limitations of reformation. Not all stories have happy endings. But at the heart of the film is the remarkable legacy of Father Flanagan, the visionary founder of Boys Town who had one firm, impossibly optimistic belief: There are no bad boys. This simple belief allowed Flanagan to reconceptualize bad behavior. Instead of being caused by the intractable evil inherent in bad people, he believed it was actually just a skill deficit. Blue Baby explores how this guiding ethic has led to one of the most successful and innovative approaches to dealing with problem behavior. See a day-in-a-life of boys at Boys Town. They live in family units, do chores, attend high school, celebrate holidays, all while being taught critical social skills. And they are taught these skills everywhere, from everyone, all the time. Blue Baby paints a realistic picture of what reformation actually looks like and the ideals that propel it forward. It’s a story about the necessary clash between desire and reality, vision and outcome, intention and result.
