7. Original quality and Themes
Original quality
 Short film- train track families coming together. Gave
idea for the two different social classes coming
together.
 Teddy being what brings them together- our original
idea- Ella thought of orientating around an object
and Zahra thought of a teddy being the object
Themes
 Family love
 Class cohesion

8. Intended audience
 Families
 Deals with adult problems- such as class and
misfortune, therefore more for ages 15+
 More of a female audience, for maternal
personalities
 People from different classes can relate to
