An ironic look at the way newspapers report children’s deaths: accidents, bad mothers, angry fathers and the bogeyman.
With an inventive mix of still photography and live action, the film sweeps around Britain to create a chilling comment on death, news reporting and the family. Statistics show that a child is more likely to be murdered by one of their parents than by a stranger – every six weeks in the UK, a man or a woman kills their children.
