Sophie was cast in a Short Film as the main character with speaking part. The role Sophie played was that of a young girl that just needs support and the people around her to tell her that its ok to be 'different' and to be yourself and that she should embrace it. Unfortunately the young girl wasnt so lucky and it is a tragic fatal outcome. The young girl had been bullied due to her ethnicity being different to the majority in the school. The young girl convinces her self that if she was 'white' like the other children then her troubles would go away. She decides to go for the bleach bottle and drinks it.
