1st Year

Directed by Mark Hewis

Synopsis
A film about a boy in a box, a mouse, a mousetrap and a loving parent.
Director's Statement
Too often we see the media portraying child abuse through the eyes of an adult or parent.  We rarely see it through the eyes of a child.  I wanted to show how the child felt in his naivety about what had/was happening to him.  The film therefore is about how the child is reacting; the mental process he is going through in relating to his surroundings and the adult.
