SHORTLISTED WATTYS 2026 | No one knew Liam was leaving. Not even himself. After seeing something he can't ignore - and realising no one is going to do anything about it - Liam walks out of his boarding school in the middle of the night. He doesn't tell anyone. He doesn't have a plan. He just knows he has to get away. He disappears into the city, trying to put distance between himself and everything that happened. But distance isn't always enough. The further he goes, the harder it becomes to keep certain things buried - memories of school, of silence, and of someone he can't quite understand. And soon he begins to realise that what he's running from might not be something he can leave behind at all. Because sometimes leaving doesn't solve anything. And some things stay with you, no matter how far you go.
