Movie description:
Seven kids wander the streets in an urban odyssey over one day and night. But not all will find their way home. Katrina and Trisha are two street-smart girls, with sharp tongues and attitude. When they wag school and are caught shoplifting, the cops make sure they leave knowing they’ve got nothing, that they’re worth nothing. Having recently fled his mother’s cloying love, Roo is now living on the street. But when he finds himself shooting a porn film he realises he’s not so tough and just wants to go home. Unfairly accused of stealing his mother’s money, Daniel decides he may as well stage a real theft. But the outcome of his actions is not the one he expects. Brother and sister, Orton and Stacey, must flee the mother they love in order to survive. And James is the most lost of all; a young Aboriginal man with no place in the white or black world.
As each kid moves deeper into peril, a mother’s scream pierces the night and we know that a life has been lost.
»Blessed« is a film about seven young people and five mothers, told over a twenty-four hour period first from the perspective of the kids and then from the perspective of the mothers. The five intertwining stories are all about kids who have either literally or spiritually run away or become lost to their mothers. A 14-year-old boy has run away from his neglectful mother but is followed by his younger sister, two 15-year-old school girls skip school to go shoplifting, another runaway boy is sexually exploited, another boy commits an unintentional act of violence and a young adult Indigenous man struggles with the fact that he was raised by a white woman.
