Bella Ramsey spent many teenage years working with adults so never really went through the moody, rebellious phase often associated with being a teenager.

The British actor, who debuted in Game of Thrones aged 11 and uses they/them pronouns, says they had consciously decided not to behave like a stereotypical teenager after hearing criticisms from adults.

"I was like, I'm not going to be that."

So when Sunny Dancer, a film about a summer camp for young people affected by cancer, gave Ramsey seven weeks to experience teenage freedom, it was an opportunity to dive straight in.
