Evaluation Q2

How does your media product represent particular social groups?

Antagonist
The antagonist is dressed in a suit, which is generally associated with authority. Similar to one of the antagonists in Abduction, an action thriller.
The aim of portraying authority as the 'bad guy' is to challenge the social hierarchy that claims that certain people are higher up, and to show that they have more opportunities to become corrupt, leading them to think they are immune to the law.


Protagonist
The protagonist is dressed in tracksuit bottoms to symbolise the stereotype of 'youths'. He also has an unshaven face and gives off an all over unkempt appearance.
He is represented as the victim in the movie to support the idea that authority is corrupt and the lower classes are often victimised by them.
