Breakdown

Breakdown’ was made as part of the Offside Creatives project by young people in a Pupil Referal Unit. We worked with 10 young people for 10 days to help them produce a piece of film. They had complete creative control and Breakdown is the result.

‘Breakdown’ shows how your actions and choices can affect your family, friends, strangers and yourself. it’s a story of confrontation and bullying, never having enough and always wanting more.

Two young friends are thrown out of their homes. Looking for acceptance they put themselves at risk while those around them feel the varying consequences.

It is performed, written and filmed by those who live this life and know it.
