Rating for our film (BTB)

This is the rating for our whole film. We have chosen to have our film rating as a 15 because there is going to be some strong violence, swearing and also some drug references later on in the film. The reason we decided on having our film rating as a 15 instead of a 12 or an 18 is because, if we had it as a 12 we would have to change our whole story, as it is about gangs, and bullying, so straight away as the audience, you would think about violence. We feel that an 18 rating for our film would be to much because the main character is a 12 year old child, and speaking logically he can't even so our film as a 15 let alone an 18. We have another example where the main character is around the age of 12, and the film rating is an 18. This film is (This Is England).

Also as an 18, we are sure that we wouldn't have him as the main character. Another reason is that our target audience wouldn't be able to see it either. 

As a 15 I think that our film is at its correct classification rating.
