In a society where the gavel falls on deaf ears, the silenced struggles of victims echo the neglect they face. Shockingly, 1 in 7 children have experienced child abuse and/or neglect in the past year. This forms the premise of Neglected, a feature film produced by Fuica Films Production and set to be released in 2025.

 

Neglected (2025) is a powerful courtroom drama that delves into the consequences of parental neglect and societal indifference. The story is centered around Joey, a young boy caught in a web of neglect and violence, and how his life is shaped by these experiences. His already troubled existence takes a darker turn when a fateful event unfolds in a bar.  The film begins in a courtroom with the focus on Joey, a silent and innocent child, and the tension is palpable. As the story unfolds, we are taken through a series of flashbacks that delve into the lives of Joey's abusive parents, Frank and Ruby (Mélanie Elliott & Gabriel Coles), as well as the bartender Milli (Alice Clement), ex-pro boxer Billy (Deano Clavet), and a street gang consisting of Choco, Mike, and Alex (Nicolas Paquin, Cédrick Gosselin & Justin Spyce). The interactions between these characters lead to a climactic event that ultimately alters the course of their lives forever.
