Ratings

The certificate of my film is a 15.


The BBFC'S Guidelines state drug taking may be shown but the film as a whole must not promote or encourage drug misuse.
In my film drug taking is shown but not promoted or glamorised. It shows the audience how drugs can ruin life's no matter what the background of the person.

Language- There may be frequent use of strong language (for example, ‘fuck’). The strongest terms (for example, ‘cunt’) may be acceptable if justified by the context. Aggressive or repeated
use of the strongest language is unlikely to be acceptable.
There is no use of strong language present in my opening titles but because of the nature of the film there may be strong language in the rest of the film.

Violence- Violence may be strong but should not dwell on the infliction of pain or injury. The strongest gory images are unlikely to be acceptable. Strong sadistic or sexualised violence is also
unlikely to be acceptable. There may be detailed verbal references to sexual violence but any portrayal of sexual violence must be discreet and have a strong contextual justification.
In my film there will be scenes of violence; Fights, muggings etc. However there will be no sexual violence.

Imitable behaviour- Dangerous behaviour (for example, hanging, suicide and self-harming) should not dwell on detail which could be copied.
