The Unloved

Synopsis

Lucy is eleven years old. Neglected by her estranged mother and father, she ends up being placed in a children's home. Through her eyes, we follow Lucy's struggle to cope with the system. Her saving is her self-belief and her certainty that she is being watched over and protected by the holy spirit; hers is a heroic quest for love, beauty and transcendence.
