Hoods
Supported By and Albert van Moorst Memorial Trust 2008 KYLE: Wish I was an Xbox wish I was. It’s Friday, KFC night and the last days of school before Christmas. Kyle, Jessie and baby brother Troy are waiting in the car for their mum. Kyle broods in the front seat with visions of Sony Playstation dancing in his head while Jessie begs him for a game of eye spy. As night closes in, the shopping centre shuts down, their mum still hasn’t come back and the baby just won’t stop crying.
