Description
Seven-year-old Tony Bruno just wants to fit in, but the bullies at his school are cruel and relentless. At home, he leans on his mother Teresa for strength and comfort, but she's no match for his father, Carmen. His father, a fighter and bully himself, hates Tony. He is embarrassed by the child for not fighting back and wishes that Tony was never born. Then as a teen, in one act of blind courage, Tony fights back shifting the balance of power with his peers. Even after Tony sets things straight with the neighborhood boys, his father continues to terrorize him. At school, Tony is now respected by his classmates. One day he stands up for a bullied kid named Salvatore and the boys become friends. One night, Salvatore commits a horrific crime and Tony suffers the consequences of his friend's actions. Tony's punishment changes the course of his life. All alone and nowhere to call home, Tony sets out to find the life he longs for, one filled with love and acceptance. But nothing comes easily for him, and he is forced to draw upon strength from deep within to survive. From the dark world he lives in, Tony does unimaginable things to leave his unwanted life behind. MEAN LITTLE PEOPLE is a haunting story of one bullied child deprived of love and taunted by correct individuals along his journey. Tony's story will make you question the balance between good and evil.
