How to Train a Dragon - Is That a Big Change?

The film that I was going to make in Ireland was intended to be a broad audience family film, it was a ghost story set during the Great Famine. So it has dark elements to it, but ultimately it's a very wish fulfilling story of a young lad who's escaped from a workhouse. But into his life comes an actual ghost from a famine ship that had wrecked upon the shores. He jeopardizes her opportunity to move on to the hereafter out of need to keep her close. And it becomes a transformational story that changes his world forever. It's about a ghost teaching a living lad how to truly live.
