Draft 4 - Treatment

Sharing

The fourth idea for my final treatment is called "Sharing"

"Sharing" is about a wealthy boy (aged 12) who meets a poor boy (aged 11), who both encounter a strong friendship despite the different background they are both from. Their friendship is expressed through the enjoyment of their company and sharing of items such as clothes,food and toys which they both love. The only conflict separating their friendship is the wealthy boys's parents who do not agree with the mixing of an inferior and "lesser" family.

This idea inspired me through watching a similar film called "The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas" which is based in Germany set in World War 2 about a forbidden friendship between a wealthy German boy and a Jewish boy on the other side of the camp fence. But through the risky communications of  both boys starling and unexpected consequences follow.
