Hunted

Jon Whiteley is an orphaned 6-year-old boy who has been placed with uncaring and harsh adoptive parents in London. He flees into the London streets after accidentally setting a small fire in the house. He stumbles across Chris Lloyd (Dirk Bogarde) and the body of the man Lloyd has just killed – his wife's employer, who Lloyd had discovered was having an affair with his wife. Now on the run, Lloyd realises that he will have to get out of London and that he has no option but to take the boy with him. The film follows the pair as they travel northwards
