Title: Revenge Tag Line:

Synopsis: A divorced couple. They have a child together. The father goes to prison and the mum has full custody of the child. The father is released from prison and poses a threat to the mother. The mums friend attempts to warn her but she's too busy to take notice. The mum is taking the child to school - normal weekday morning.

Key Genre Conventions: Our film follows Todorov's narrative theory. We are in a state of equilibrium when the mother and child are on there way to school. There is disruption of events when the father is released from prison. We realise this when mums friend sees that the father has been released from prison in the newspaper and attempts to contact the mum. This film contains suspense as the audience knows that the father has been released from prison and the mother is too distracted to find that. The film ends on a cliff hanger when the father stalks the mum and grabs her shoulder.
