Baby Brother

Synopsis

Set around the theme of broken love between two brothers. BABY BROTHER tells the story of Adam and his vulnerable younger brother Liam across two separate days, five years apart. They where once as close as brothers can be.
Adam is seen as a trouble-causer by his mother, who resents him. He desires to take himself and Liam away and live a better life. He spends his mornings cutting the grass of an old lady to save money and finally escape the grasp of an alcoholic step father and cocaine addicted mother, until he is forced to pay off their debts, and pushed to the limit.
Five years on and Adam returns, desperate to spend one more day with his best friend, his baby brother Liam. Things aren’t the same, as his past traumas travel home with him.
