'Jellyfish' is a multi-ward winning film about a young carer who struggles with looking after her mother and siblings, being bullied at school and dealing with an overbearing boss. When Sarah’s drama teacher channels her ferocious and volatile energies in to a stand-up comedy routine for the graduation showcase, Sarah discovers that she may have a hidden talent.
"I've never related more to a film in my life." Shannon, young carer (19)
