Becca was attacked 5 months ago in a wood near her home. The Man who attacked her was never arrested but Becca knows who he is, her attacker was the local shop owner but lack of proof let him walk free and she sees him every day and is living in fear of her past.

Our film consists of vast camera angles such as: point of view, low angle, over the shoulder shots and movements such as panning. We experiment with lighting and sound. Our film has a set costume and makeup design to emphasis the extent of the attack.
Our target audience is ages 15-52 as we feel our film may show explicit images and strong language it also has a strong mental meaning and gore, we feel that this is inappropriate for younger viewers. We also feel that our film reflects predominantly on today’s society and we feel that older audiences may not appreciate this and may feel offended by the strong language and gore.
The appeal of our film is the gritty realism of current society and showing real-life and everyday events on screen. We are showing how specific events can take such a large impact on life and we feel Becca is a character which offers many chances for the audience to connect and emphasize with her. The film also offers a heart breaking story of a girl and the destruction of her life and deterioration of her mind from one man’s actions.
Our film is influenced by taken as it’s a series of events which lacks a moral; it shows how other peoples events cause disruptions in so many. In taken one groups doing of kidnapping young girls caused death of many and mental deterioration of the mother, father and daughter. In our film, one man’s choice to attack and assault a girl causes mental disturbances ending relationships and ruining futures.
Our unique selling point is that our film is linked with rape crisis center (a charity based on offering support to women who been victim of rape, physical assault and mental assault) we worked closely with them and assault victims to offer an honest look into the world of a victim and give knowledge of what is looked over yesterday and the profit will be split 50/50 between us and the charity.
