The family game
Description
The parents of five year-old Andrew dread taking him out, he is known locally for his disruptive behaviour and parental pressure has already forced him from two schools. But the family have been accepted for a pioneering six week course at the Maudsley Hospital in London, where the film follows the progress of the family as leading psychiatrists use games and learning as a means of reducing Andrew's problems.
