The story

Daize is trying to keep her mother safe from Ben’s drug-dealing boss, while Ben enters her life from the other side of that threat. Their hostility begins to shift as the two young people find in each other a kind of understanding that the adults around them have failed to provide, putting a fragile connection inside a world already shaped by danger and mistrust.

In the room

A youth drama that mixes threat with moments of hope, keeping the focus on an unlikely connection formed under pressure.

Good fit if you like

tense youth drama, unlikely alliances, family protection and trust formed under pressure.
