His only friend is flighty waitress Louise (Keira Knightley of PRIDE & PREJUDICE, PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN FRANCHISE) who helps Paul in his desperate attempt to protect his family from their mother's drug addiction and dealer boyfriend (David Wenham of 300 and PUBLIC ENEMIES). Ultimately, it is only when she hits rock bottom and is brought face to face with the damage she has wrought that Mel finds the power to save herself and her family."@en

Following the death of his father, he takes on the role of caretaker to mother Mel and younger brother Lee. Paul's hunger for his mother's affection is as moving as her inability to respond as she seeks solace in drugs. With heroic optimism, Paul takes drastic steps to rescue Mel from her addiction."
