About ‘Bosco’
Based on Adams’ book “Chasin’ Freedum,” which tells the tale of his desperation to meet his new daughter and the lengths he went to to achieve that goal. Adams was arrested for attempting to possess marijuana — a substance now legal for recreational use in 24 states— , and sentenced to 35 years in prison. Adams finds himself under 24-hour surveillance in a federal maximum-security prison, and his future looks bleak.
Adams also knows he has a child on the way, and the longer he sits in prison the more fully he realizes he has to be there for her birth. Enlisting the aid of a Missouri woman he meets in a personal ad, Adams breaks out of prison, setting off a chain of events that ultimately leads to his release and the writing of his book about his experiences.
The film features a fantastic cast, including Nikki Blonsky as “Tammy,” Tyrese Gibson as “Tootie,” Vivica A. Fox as “Willa,” Theo Rossi as “Ramos,” Thomas Jane as “Hunt.”
