Relating to the way our project was shot we were not intended upon representing a particular group of people as a whole, being that we included a limited amount of characters and furthermore did not even reveal the true identity of the main character. However in focussing solely upon the main character we did indeed provide a representation of a group of people even linked in with the genre of our film. The idea of the human psyche having a darker nature, the sort of nature that expresses such desires to commit atrocities such as cannibalism and murder, this is the representation that we have presented in out project. Primarily the idea that every person has this repressed darker side that they are scared of and that they choose to keep hidden from society, but it is always present. For the people who actually embrace this we show them to be manipulative and cunning and seriously twisted in many ways and the way that they go about their lives leading them to fulfil these heinous aspirations. Another social group represented on perhaps a much wider scale is that of gender the idea that women are weaker than men, the idea that they are victims this idea shown in the motif we have created in our film of the female victim. It suggests that they do not have to power to defend themselves and as it makes itself obvious toward the end on the film that the main character is about to go and kill another female this representation is further amplified.
