THE STORY

In 2004, a Home Office survey revealed that there are 20 to 60 youngsters, aged 16 to 24, living rough in each inner city in the UK. They are responsible for vast levels of crime and in almost all cases they have come from broken homes and a history of abuse, both physical and sexual, most of the time inflicted on them by their own parents. Nikki, 18, fled a sexually abusive homelife and a succesion of foster families to live on the street. There she met Vincent, 21, the product of heroin addicted parents. Together they spend their days trying to survive the perils of living rough and supporting their own drug addictions. They are wild, unwanted and trying to live without fear. They are the lost children of modern day society. They are The Feral Generation.


ANDREW JONES ABOUT KEELEY

Keeley is a hugely renound dancer who has toured with the likes of Robbie Williams and has been at the top of her game for years now. This was her first audition for an acting role and she absolutely nailed it first time out. Great find, it was well worth the very long day in London just to find her.
