Us Vs The World

'I guess we've always preferred hiding away than sharing our problems. Us versus the world.'

When Sam is woken in the middle of the night by the sound of his mother crying, he is reluctant to get up and discover the reason for her distress. When he finally discovers what has happened, even his worst fears cannot compare to the truth, and he realises that both their lives have now changed irrevocably.

Sam and Jude struggle to cope with their shock and grief and are powerless to stop their family home descending from a place of refuge into one of dread and danger. As their world begins to resemble a horror movie, events from the past surface once more bringing with them painful memories of betrayal and public shaming.

Can Sam and Jude recover from the trauma of what has happened or have their lives been devastated forever? Do they share their secret with the outside world, or do they retreat into a life of seclusion and fear? And is either one of them brave enough to make the ultimate sacrifice, for the sake of their family and potentially the rest of the world…?
