MY LIFE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE FOOD CHAIN

Description:

KIDS FIRST!® Adult Juror Comments:

Has a lot of potential. The characters start with a simple problem and their personalities and conflicts grow throughout the screenplay. The resolution is unusual yet believable. Bullies and school conflicts are very familiar topics for kids. Some will identify with the underdogs, others will identify with the person perceived as the bully. This film has the potential of helping kids relate with all sorts of people and teaching them to look at the big picture.
