8 months ago, I wrote a script in my bedroom based on the concept of young carers. I knew a girl in high school who revealed to me two weeks before the end of term, that she was a young carer and that she had been dealing with it for years and no one knew. To me, this was devastating, but to her it was normal.
The story was to also show a fraction of in the day of a life for a carer to hopefully make the viewer understand what can seriously happen behind closed doors.
Mum grandma had Alzheimer’s and it was a horrible and cruel disease which I hope one day has a legitimate cure for it.
Hopefully this film gives the young carers a voice.
