Details

Lillie Lee lives on the Heights estate. Confined to her bedroom by sickness, Lillie feels isolated and abnormal. Her bedroom window is her only connection to the outside world; she obsessively watches her neighbours from it and keeps herself occupied by making up stories about them. An unusual encounter with Dara, another girl from the estate, leads the two teenagers to strike up a firm friendship that may prove to be dangerous. The Heights touches on what it's like to be different from others, it examines the idea of storytelling and the power of the imagination, and looks at how the lines between fact and fiction can often easily become blurred.
