Locked-In Boy

This film is authored by Jonathan, an extraordinary ten-year-old, who for the first eight years of his life was 'locked' in his body - unable to speak or communicate. In the last two years, with his mum's help and through his own will and determination Jonathan has learned to 'talk' with his eyes using a special spelling board. Now 'unlocked' Jonathan takes us on his very personal mission to give a voice to other children unable to express themselves, from presenting his petition to a government minister to reading his own story to his hero Michael Morpurgo.
