My Father's Violin

2022

My Father's Violin is the story of 8 year old Turkish girl, Ozlem, who goes to live with her father's brother, Mehmet, when her father dies.
Mehmet is an acclaimed violinist, a perfectionist and hard man who doesn't have much time for a small child. However, his relationship with Ozlem changes all that.

Children and young people in social care, and those who have left, are often subject to stigmatisation and discrimination. Being stigmatised and discriminated against can impact negatively on mental health and wellbeing not only during the care experience but often for many years after too. The project aims to contribute towards changing community attitudes towards care experienced people as a group. See glossary HERE
