Justifications for the name of my film trailer and character profiles.

I chose the name ''Bound'' for my social realist trailer because I feel that if someone were tangled in a web of  internet predators or even cyber bullies they would feel bound by silence. Social realist trailers tend to possess names with a hidden meaning such as the film ''Fish Tank'' who's name can be interpreted as the idea that the main character (Mia) can see her dreams, but she can't reach them.

As the story progresses we see the main character, Annie, lying to her mother about who she met the day she came  home crying and what happened. She feels as if she can't tell anyone. This ultimately leads to her unravel.

Character Profiles


  • Annie Forrest - Annie Forrest is a 15 year old girl from a middle class family. She lives with her widowed mother in Herne Bay. Annie and her mother don't have the strongest relationship and Annie tends to stay out late and disobey her mother. At a young age, Annie started to be bullied, like many young girls and boys do. Though her hair is long and dark and her eyes are a bright blue she may not be what people deem ''attractive''. Her confidence is further lowered by the bullying.
  • Jenna Croft (Annie's friend) - 15 years old from a working class family. Jenna and Annie met in primary school and have been friends ever since. Jenna has light brown hair and hazel eyes. Jenna tends to present herself as the boss in ever situation. Annie always tends to go to Jenna for advice.
  • Chris Gromes (Imaginary) - A 16 year old boy from Canterbury, from a middle class family. His hair was dark and so was his eyes. He had a tall and muscular build. His nature was caring and he liked to listen to the people around him. Annie met Chris in an online chat room.
  • Chris Gromes (In reality) - A 36 year old man from Canterbury  Lied about is identity online to meet teenage girls and groom them. He has brown hair and a long, bushy beard. His eyes are blue and he is tall and almost skeletal. His cheekbones sink in dramatically, revealing a chiselled jawline and facial structure. He tenses his fists when he talks.
