It Started in the Filth
Impoverished districts of London, England, 1864. In 19th century London, young Dimitri and his sister struggle to keep themselves afloat, living deep within the city’s impoverished slums. When Dimitri is wrongfully accused of murder the boy soon finds himself caught in a world of wretchedness as pressures to submit to immorality creep in from every side within the prison.
