| Description |
"The Kid has an ambitious reach - the end of the world, no less. At least the end of the world as seen through the eyes of a bunch of street kids...The Kid is really an extended metaphor about despair, hopelessness and the impossibility of human perfection...it tells the story of three teenage kids - Snake, Aspro and Dean - who embark on a journey to Sydney,
where they end up in a souless flat, which reflects their future." |
