Dusty's Story

Synopsis

How do we know dead people are really dead? Dusty, a young girl, struggles to come to terms with the loss of her parents in this dark fairy tale. She must find the answer to that question herself, but it's hard when no-one believes you, and the walls keep closing in - or do they?
