CGiii Comment

When life has nothing else to offer...a boy who has little.

When there is nowhere else to go, when there is absolutely no-one to turn to...a wretched desolation.

Poor boy.

Poor Mum...wondrous performances by both.

Social comment has never been so stark, stoic and sensitive.

Najafi has excelled...quite remarkable, deeply worrying and - achingly - heart-breaking.
