As a group we decided to name the film Kelly.
Kelly is the eponymous character which is why we thought it would be a good idea to keep the title simple and just use her name. There are many examples of female names being used as the title of the actual film, for example: Lucy (2014), Annie (1982), Erin Brockovich (2000).
Outline of the film
We came up with the idea to create a youth drama film. The majority of youth dramas centre around gang violence and male leads. We thought it would be cool to come up with a sort of psychological thriller.
We decided to not to adhere to the stereo type, however we altered it to have a female lead.
After looking at some examples of youth drama's from Top Boy to Fish Tank, we decided to base our film on a young troubled teen, suffering from a drug and alcohol addiction.
We didn't want to over-complicate her character, so we just tried to keep her as simple as possible.
We decided that in the end of the film, she kills herself - and that is what you'll se in the opening scene. This is because she has killed someone, and is too traumatised by the event that she sees suicide as the only way out.
