Sketches

Walters, E
Fourteen-year-old Dana, runs away from home after being abused by her stepfather. She cuts herself as a way of dealing with the abuse. She is befriended by two other street kids (with their own issues), and together they do what they need to, to survive. Dana, who loves art, finds out about a drop-in art centre for homeless teens. Through her time at the centre, Dana is able to overcome her challenges, and help her two friends do the same.
