THRILLER PLANNING | Title Explanation

The film will be called 'Boxes of People'

The meaning behind this title is very representative of the issues that are faced in the film. The audience will be able to decipher for themselves what the title actually means due to its vague explanation, with this - we are leaving the audience to experience the uncertainty and suddenness of the film before watching it through. The idea of a box of people can be interpreted in many ways: How big is the box? How many people are in it? Is there anything else in the box? What does the box actually mean?

The box itself represents a section of society and that everyone is closer to one another than they think, as well as this, it emphasised that the division of ethnicity/gender/race in previous years has left a mark on society which is hard to repair. Linking to how the film shows dispute between groups of teens and the law itself - yet in reality everyone is essentially on the same level of power - its just up to us to decide how to use it, For example, The teens take the law into their own hands whereas the police are given it - leading to both groups possessing the same power yet having different uses for it.

Referring back to past divisions in society that are ongoing today, there are no boundaries in this metaphoric box - therefore giving a picture that anything cam happen. Again, linking to the film, we see how there is social division based on wealth/power and of course ethnicity and race, providing a similar issue of a vicious civilisation in the films title. The way that we have titled the film leaves the audience to not only see what is in the box, but also to wonder why it is just a section of society that were focusing on. The reason behind this is to reiterate that there are far more important issues in the world that need facing, for example - rather than causing dissension and unhappiness you could be more liberal and donate to charities or help one another rather that hate your peers. Proving how as a human race, we are focusing all out attention on the wrong things.
