Description:

Director: Sophie Boyce. Esbi Films is a production team of 17-19 years olds. The company has been running for 8 years, making short films directed by Sophie Boyce. Many of these films have been screened in competitions and festivals in the UK.

'At The Mercy' is a short film about friendship and acceptance. Martin Hearn is the 11-year-old product of corrupt mental institutions and doctors more warped than their patients. When he returns home for the week, he falls into the naive arms of a new companion; 11-year-old Christian. With simple childlike naivety, Christian helps Martin to grow in a way nobody has before.

Audition is 16th May in Buckinghamshire.
