Glass Child depicts the sibling relationship between Kayah, a young man with Down Syndrome, and his sister Maitreyah.
Throughout their lives Maitreyah has watched Kayah be left out, ridiculed or ignored without understanding why. Glass Child puts a microscope on their love and how their relationship has grown. It questions how we behave when we find the difference we inevitably look for and asks us to examine why we search for difference when we share so much in common. It is poignantly personal and inclusive, incorporating complex themes of trust, communication, sense of self and our place in the world.
