The Backseat

“The Backseat” tells the story of a lonely but upbeat girl called Shelby who rides the local buses in an attempt to keep warm and find meaningful connections with her fellow passengers - in a world that all too often looks the other way.

The film is a sensitive look at those in the community who are vulnerable and marginalised. It points out that their lives, like those of all of us, are essentially the result of many factors beyond our control rather than any personal action.
