In early nineteenth-century England, poverty-stricken, orphaned siblings Joe and Annie escape from the abusive farmer they work for and try to survive in Manchester, with help from a friendly tramp, a mysterious dog-woman, and renegade printer Abel Heywood who supports the rights of the poor.
"Eine ergreifende Geschichte über zwei Waisenkinder: Joe und Annie sind Geschwister, die vom Armenhaus an eine Bauernfamilie verkauft und von dieser aufs schlimmste misshandelt werden. Als sie abhauen, treffen sie Travis, einen Landstreicher, der ihnen für kurze Zeit über die Runden hilft. Als sie von Travis verlassen werden, machen sie sich auf den Weg nach Manchester, um ihre Mutter zu suchen. Annie, die zum Teil von Toten heimgesucht wird, die durch ihren Körper sprechen, wird von ihrem älteren Bruder Joe, dem die Belastung zu gross wird, an einen Zirkus verkauft. Joe wird Mitglied einer Kindergang und schlägt sich durch, bis er sein schlechtes Gewissen nicht mehr aushält und sich auf die Suche nach Annie macht. Dabei trifft er Abel und Nell die, als sie Annie nach etlichen Gefahren finden, die Kinder bei sich aufnehmen. Eine sehr bewegende Geschichte, die das Schicksal der Armen in Manchester während der industriellen Revolution wiedergibt. Ab 13 Jahren, ausgezeichnet, Laura Vanoni."
