A boy, left to do housework by his mother, has only one point in the day that brings a smile to his face.
Whilst on holiday in France this Summer I wanted to make a film with a French feel and something a bit more serious than things I've done in the past (although, ultimately, the story is a bit cliché).
I was out there for two weeks and this idea was fully conceived after the first week and then second week was spent trying to get all of the necessary shots. (This proved to be difficult due to a number of factors far beyond my control!)
My aim during production was to tell a story that wouldn't lead an audience through completely my the nose but rather to allow you to draw your own conclusions about the events shown onscreen as well as those before and after.
Hopefully I've succeeded in making something enjoyable and I would love to hear some feedback to this :)
