The December Boys are a close knit group of four adolescent orphans who were all born in December. The boys' hope of ever being adopted grows slimmer with each passing year, and it is not until their first summer away from the orphanage that the fading hope of finding parents becomes a real possibility, but only for one of them. The boys make friends with a young couple who are unable to become pregnant and decide to adopt a child. The four compete to be the most adoptable, severely testing their friendships when long gestating feelings of rejection erupt to the surface.

It is currently being released in the United States over a period of five weeks from September 14 to October 12, 2007 and was released in Australia on September 20, 2007. It is rated PG in Australia and PG-13 in the United States.
