Tommy Anderson was born in a prison, and he died in one too. The
last moments of his life are recorded on CCTV, and yet no one can
answer the simple question: whose fault was it? His mother Anne
blames Marcus, the guard who was supposed to be looking after him.
Marcus, acquitted by the courts but tormented by his part in
Tommy's death, wants the family's social worker to admit to the
role she played. And social worker Sue can't work out when it was
she stopped caring. Piecing together a boy's life and death in
care, Carthage asks who should raise our children when the systems
designed to protect them can be as abusive as the situations from
which they were rescued.
