Prague Short Film Festival Presents 2016 / Flea / United Kingdom 2014
Flea is a tough city cookie who never complains. But her mother’s abusive partner is more than even she can handle. Will drugs help her to escape the violence and terror she faces or will she come up with a better plan? Flea is an uplifting drama that shows us we really can overcome anything if we set our minds to it.
