Storyline
Plot Summary |
At about 11, the stubborn and impulsive Cyril seems on his way to delinquency: he has no mother, his father wants a new life without him, so he's in a foster institution. He searches for his father, wanting him and his bike. Through the intersession of Samantha, a hairdresser Cyril happens upon, he gets his bike back, and she offers to take him into her home on weekends. He remains aloof from her and gets involved with a young crook. Is Cyril intent on driving Samantha away - and what then?

Trivia | For both the moments where Cyril is running from the police and ends up in the doctor's office and the opening scene when he's using the phone and won't let go, the young actor was just instructed by the directors not to give up what the character was doing under any circumstance.
