On returning to the house , the school headmaster complaints about his elder sons poor performance in all the subjects except science. When he comes to house , the elder one seems playing out side the house in dark. He gets frustrated & exposes his anger over his son . The night ends with disappointment.

group
In a group therapy session, Maxine helps the reflective and thoughtful Richard begin to share his difficulty working through the loss of his father. Some in the group are silent, while others are unsympathetic and even callous telling Richard to 'get over it.' The professional, middle-aged Maxine, however, lends her listening ear and thoughtful responses as she systematically shepherds the various members of the group. As a result, other members begin to shallowly share their grief over their own losses. As the weight of these burdens mount, Richard forces Maxine to face her own grief and loss. In an unusual turn, a startling revelation is made: Maxine leads her group into a jarring reality. You've never felt so alone as you do in group.

Words
Bullying is an issue many kids face daily. I wanted to do something to help. When I heard this teen girl read an anti-bullying monologue she wrote, I instantly knew I had to make a film about it. The Santa Monica Pier became a moody, atmospheric location, and the haunting "With All Modesty" by the Cocanuts was a perfect fit for the original score. |
