A story about belonging...70's social issues, still current fifty years on, sadly: the foster care system, separating siblings and the ensuing loss and grief; postnatal depression and the woes of inadequate treatment; racial marginalisation and tensions all seen through the eyes of a 9 year old boy. Well-balanced by the warmth of a good foster cater, community spirit and hope. A lovely, heartfelt depiction: had to shed a tear or two. Great cast: Cole Martin's (Leon) performance was brilliant.
