DNA deals with a whole host of contemporary issues through its portrayal of a particularly disaffected and alienated teenage-orientated view of the ‘modern’ world. The characters are loosely drawn‚ not often given space to comment on anything other than their immediate world and the complications of the relationships through which it is structured.

There’s no sign of life in the park besides myself and the typical flock of
