intended audience

The intended audience for our product would be from age 15 to about 25. basically from mid teens to mid twenties.
Reasons for this choice of age group include:

The controversial issues it deals with a controversial issue such as prostitution, stereotypes and violence.


Defence of the Realm is a 1985 political thriller directed by David Drury. Starring Gabriel Byrne, Greta Scacchi, Denholm Elliott and Robbie Coltrane.
The film takes its title from the 1914
Defence of the Realm Act (DORA), passed at the start of the First World War, which gave the Government executive powers to suppress criticism, imprison without trial and commandeer economic resources for the war effort.

edit] Plot summary
Following a crash of a nuclear bomber at an American Air Force base in the English countryside, Dennis Markham (
Ian Bannen), a prominent member of Parliament and opponent of the American nuclear presence in the United Kingdom , is reported by a London paper to have been seen leaving a woman's home. When the woman is found to also be familiar with a dignitary from East Germany, his loyalty to his country is questioned and he is forced to resign, reminiscent of the 1963 Profumo Affair. The author of the newspaper exposé, Nick Mullen (Gabriel Byrne), continues his investigation with his colleague Vernon Bayliss (Denholm Elliott) who suspects that Markham is being framed for his views. But when Vernon dies from a mysterious heart attack, Mullen suspects something deeper at work and finds evidence of a complex cover up concerning the near accident and a secret Air Force base. With the help of Markham's secretary, Nina Beckman (Greta Scacchi), Mullen continues to investigate the affair despite the best attempts of the British Government to stop him.

this film also deals with controversial issues with government and politics. same as how our film deals with issues that the public can also relate to.

another reason for the choice of age group was the violence within the film



this film is about gangs and a boys jurney and struggle to get out of his volent life. with this film a lot of people can relate to the struggles that the protagonist meets on his jurney. the public can also relate to this as seeing a kid go through struggles in his life and make something of himself, which still happens today.

The final reason for the chocie of age is the understanding of the film. People within this age group have the best understanding of topics like this, esspecially in this day and age. Therefore the fact that this has young people staring in the film betweween the ages of 15-25 give a better relation to the audience. therfore people of the age group would be the ones that would want to watch the film.
