Ralph is the story of one little boy's battle for truth; his father leaves the family, and just when he believes that everything be alright, his mother quite literally disappears without a trace. With the truth concealed from him by over protective grandparents, he starts to invent reasons for mummy's absence. His childish perceptions fuel his imagination; naivety drives his tortured crusade for the truth. All he has to sustain him is an absolute trust in his best friend, 'Swingers' and an absolute certainty that 'Jumbo' Dickinson is a sneak. He conjures wild fantasy that merges with reality in the way that only a child can do. As he increasingly takes control of his own destiny, so he takes greater control of the narrative. He and Swingers go on their naughtiest, best ever adventure with disastrous results. He discovers the very best part of his nature and is then faced with a choice, a choice that means he will lose no matter what he does. His choice could mean risking his very life...
