A NEW LIFE

When 18 year old Kayaan and his childhood sweetheart Ria discover they are going to have a baby, they are excited about what the future holds for their new family. Sharing a bedroom though in Kayaan's Mum's 2 bedroom flat just isn't an option, so when they seek help about a move, they are told the only options for them are out of town, miles away from family. Suddenly the pair are faced with raising their child away from any family, making Kayaan go to drastic measures to try and fix it.
