Ideal Characters

Andy Beckwith- Played a frightening gangster in Snatch where he intimidated others which is exactly what we need for our Polish thugs. He is not actually Polish

MarcinKowalczyk-Discovery of Year (Odkrycieroku) 2012 award nominee after the film You Are God. A young Polish actor who would be perfect to play the role of the boy bike.

Setting

- Our Film is set in 'Galleywood Common' A park woodland type area. We feel this suited the 'Polish' location very well and had the most comparible lighting with our polish influences that we have researhed.
-The setting is very important so that the man has a chance of escaping we know the setting very well which makes it a safe bet
