Keeping the proposed 12A Rating

Concerning the BBFC's Age Guidelines I think that our film would sufficient follow the following guidelines:

Discrimination- Discriminatory language or behaviour must not be endorsed by the work as a whole. Aggressive discriminatory language or behaviour is unlikely to be acceptable unless clearly condemned. Next to no language of this sort is actually present in our piece, it is essentially rather clean. No violent behaviour.

Drugs- Any misuse of drugs must be infrequent and should not be glamorised or give instructional detail. No theme of drugs is actually present in the film.
 
Horror- Moderate physical and psychological threat may be permitted, provided disturbing sequences are not frequent or sustained.  The scene with the dead body isn't sustained much. Only lasts for an incredibly short while, Pictures found in the credits are mildly disturbing but are balanced out with visual breaks of items such as newspapers
 
Imitable behaviour- Dangerous behaviour (for example, hanging, suicide and self-harming) should not dwell on detail which could be copied, or appear pain or harm free. No such visible behaviour

Easily accessible weapons should not be glamorised. No proposed weapon to avoid such a claim

Language- Moderate language is allowed. The use of strong language (for example, ‘fuck’) must be infrequent. Barely recognised use of the word 'Damn' but that barely scratches the limit

Theme- Mature themes are acceptable, but their treatment must be suitable for young teenagers. Themes are kept reasonable and do not exceed this limit.

Violence- Moderate violence is allowed but should not dwell on detail. There should be no emphasis on injuries or blood, but occasional gory moments may be permitted if justified by the context. Sexual violence may only be implied or briefly and discreetly indicated, and must have a strong contextual justification. Violence is something that is lacking in this piece, this shouldn't be an issue
