The shocking death of ten year old Damilola Taylor in 2000 saw an innocent schoolboy lose his life on the streets of London. In front of the world's media, his parents embarked on a gruelling path to find justice – but behind closed doors, how could their love survive such private grief? This feature-length drama reveals the personal story behind the headlines, immersing us in Damilola's world, exploring his journey from Lagos to London and looking his family's quest for justice. Told primarily from the point of view of Damilola's father, Richard Taylor OBE, this is a surprising, intimate and deeply moving story of fatherhood, family and hope. (HBO Europe)
