Synopsis
Fifteen-year-old Reece is roughly accosted by the police outside M&S. His face presses into the wet gravel as a policeman digs a knee into his back. His teacher Gillian watches on, frozen out of fear for her own safety. The next day, Reece locks them both in her classroom and refuses to relinquish the key. He wants her to pay – and to fully understand the pain of the irreversible breakdown of trust her inaction has caused.
