Rating.

The rating for our film would be 15 as the BBFC permits the following within the bounds of the 15 certificate:

Theme: No theme is prohibited, provided the treatment is appropriate to 15 year olds.
Language: There may be frequent use of strong language; the strongest terms are only rarely acceptable. Continued aggressive use of strong language and sexual abuse is unacceptable.
Nudity: There are no constraints on nudity in a non-sexual or educational context.
Sex: Sexual activity and nudity may be portrayed but without strong detail. The depiction of casual sex should be handled responsibly. There may be occasional strong verbal references to sexual behaviour.
Violence: Violence may be strong but may not dwell on the infliction of pain, and of injuries. Scenes of sexual violence must be discreet and brief.
Imitable techniques: Dangerous combat techniques such as ear claps, head-butts and blows to the neck are unlikely to be acceptable. There may be no emphasis on the use of easily accessible lethal weapons (in particular, knives).
Horror: Sustained or detailed infliction of pain or injury is unacceptable.
Drugs: Drug taking may be shown but clear instructive detail is unacceptable. The film as a whole must not promote or encourage drug use. And in our media product we subtly hint that a date-rape drug is used (at the drinking scene) and also that the protagonist has been raped the night previous.

In our film the protagonist is seen as vunerable and scared as she wakes up upset and confused about what happened the night before and how she ended up in an empty park in the early hours of the morning. Also in the film as the protagonist is displayed as a victim throughout the film opening we think that the rating of our film should be 15. As we believe that the date-rape drugs and the rape being implied in the film opening isn’t suitable for under 15 year olds. Also, to legally be able to drink you have to be 18 years old and their is drinking in our film opening hence why our rating is not 12. In addition our film opening involves binge drinking and deals with immoral events that take place.
