Someone to Love
Three years have passed since the divorce of 10-year-old Shay’s parents. No one, not even his parents or his older brothers and sisters, has ever discussed the subject with him. In this film, Shay opens up for the first time and speaks freely about his personal pain and the lack of love that he feels. Over the course of the film, Shay falls in love with a young girl, a moment of hope that allows him to find the kind of love which he has been searching for.
