Group: Treatment

The sequence begins with a boy, in his late teens, lying on his bed having just woken up. The atmosphere is very grey and sombre as he stares at an image of his mother on the wall, who has recently passed away. The scene then changes to the boys father, in the living room of the house emitting the same sombre, emotionless facial expressions. The boy enters the scene and an argument begins almost instantly; doors are slammed and glass gets broken causing the boy to storm out of the house. As we see him aggressively walking down the street his group of friends appear in the distance. It isn't long after he meets up with them that another conflict occurs, which again, sees the boy storm off. A new line of action is introduced here, where the father is shown drinking to excess, revealing both characters to have issues of a similar nature. They both come to this emotional realization that they desperately need each other.
