Additonal research

There are many films that my film has been inspired and taken influence from.

The opening of the film and the ticking clock is inspired by La Haine. The location is similar- Suburbs of a multi ethnic working class society.
The opening scene from my film is an homage to La Haine, where Vincent Cassel is looking infront of the mirror and pretending to be Travis Bickle from Taxi Driver.
It has also inspired me too use the black and white effect.

Another influence is Trainspotting. Trainspotting explores the use of drugs and the influence of friends. I think this plays an important role in my film.

Other influences include Requiem for a Dream and Mean Streets.
