1) How might a non- British audience view this representation of British Collective Identity?
The film only focuses on one area of Britain and people abroad may assume that the rest of Britain is similar therefore may put them off coming. The film is set in a lower class area which is shown through the surroundings, the language used and the characters' actions for example underage drinking and smoking and violence. It is a very negative view of our country and doesn't invite people abroad to our country.
2) From your point of view is this film realistic?
The film definitely touches upon realistic problems within our society e.g. broken families, people breaking the law and a change of moral framework within society. There were definitely realistic elements of the film; Mia was not very good at dancing which actually made sense because however much she may like dancing, in her situation she would not be able to afford dance tuition.
