The Knife That Killed Me

Synopsis

The tragic tale of sixteen-year-old Paul Varderman’s downward spiral into knife crime. We learn of Paul’s untimely death at the beginning of the film and are then taken on a journey through Paul’s memories as he tries to make sense of how he came to be involved with Roth and his gang, and how he came to be in possession of the knife, the knife that killed him. Fear is the overriding emotion in the coarse, graffiti littered playground for Paul and his peers; fear of not fitting in, fear of being misunderstood and worst of all, fear of appearing afraid. This compelling story is brought to life in a truly original fashion - 100% CGI, with a unique and innovative visual style.
