Synopsis:

This powerful drama is about a group of children growing up in a residential care home in south London. Rather than looking at the familiar territory of abusive care workers, this film explores some of the more positive aspects of life in an institution. In essence this is a story of love, friendship and rivalry, between Bella, Martin and Lee, played out against a background of life in a care home. Funny, dramatic and shocking, ultimately the film is a positive and uplifting piece of work about human resilience.
