Looks interesting but probably upsetting. Heard one of the teachers on the radio talking about working at this school. Sounded like an incredibly challenging, but worthy place.

Blurb "The Mulberry Bush School is where kids go when they can't go anywhere else. Children whose behavioural and emotional problems are so extreme that other schools, their parents and care homes have rejected them. Children who have suffered such physical and emotional abuse since early childhood that according to a recent government inspectors report they have become the most damaged and challenging children in the country.

This film explores the remarkable relationships which are formed between the staff and children. We are drawn into the arduous and emotionally charged process of trying to break the kids violent and self-destructive patterns of behaviour. Adult themes. "
