A moving story about two strangers who change each other's lives
Finn and Kaz are about to meet for the first time...
Ten-year-old Finn, a quirky, sensitive boy who talks a lot and only eats at cafes with a 5-star hygiene rating, is having a tough time at school and home.

They don't know it yet, but the second time they meet will be a moment which changes both of their lives forever . . .
