BBFC film ratings




15 Rating
We have decided, after looking at the film ratings in depth, that our film and opening is going to be a 15 rating. This is because it contains:
-Brief scenes of sexual violence or verbal references to sexual violence
-Strong violence/hints of violence
-Portrayals of sexual activity 
-Strong language
-Discreet sexual violence which is justified by context

The reason why we didn't use a rating higher than a 15, is because our film/opening does not include:
-Frequent and consistently strong language
-Does not endorse discriminatory language or behaviour
-Strong or crude sexual references
-Sustained focus on sadistic or sexualised threats
-Strong horror
-Strong blood and gore

Some of the themes and context of our film opening are quite disturbing for young audiences, and the focus on domestic violence and stalking means that it cannot be below a 15 rating.
