Jellyfish

15 year-old Sarah is the sole caregiver to the family and must juggle the responsibilities of looking after her younger siblings and manic-depressive mother with a part-time job and school work. Her difficult circumstances are compounded as she's bullied by her peers and often reprimanded by teachers, but when Sarah attempts stand-up comedy, she finds a creative outlet for her quick wit. Jellyfish is a tough British drama which explores difficult issues that may be highly distressing for some viewers, but also demonstrates valuable insight into the experiences of young carers from working-class backgrounds.
