A baby. A young girl. A growing girl. Happy. Innocent. A growing woman. Drugs. Drinking. Screaming. Arguments. Depression.
As a child, a girl was asked what she would like to be when she grew up, things that most little girls would have: "marry a prince", "have lots of friends", but most importantly "be happy". Growing up proves something different to many children, especially in Britain when innocent vulnerable children become the feared. This short film shows the stages of growing up in Britain from a girl's point of her: her dreams and ambitions and how reality seemed to contradict that in this moving realistic drama that will hopefully make you think: who do you want to be?
This is the chosen idea for my group and I's short film. It will have mixes of montages as well as old home videos used paired with new footage we will film ourselves to portray the difference in growing up in Britain for a girl from a baby to an 18 year old. She will start as innocent, vulnerable and fragile and along the way make wrong choices due to the British atmosphere and peer pressure and end up a complete contradiction to what she wanted to be as a little girl.
