Adhering to the essential question, “How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues?”
My film would fit every one of my previous conventions provided such as Corruption, Good v. Evil, Power, Morality, Danger, and Fallibility. The main character in the film would learn throughout his time in the criminal world, a naive soldier coming back from a war, struggling to find his purpose, who falls in the wrong path but uses it to his advantage. Political and economic instability along with an abundance of criminal activity, corrupt cops, and relentless gang wars would be prevalent in this film, explaining my character's cause to continue in the criminal world.
Archetypes: Loyalty, Strong, Truthfulness, Strong, and Patriotic. However he would have his own prejudices that are frequent throughout the movie, but he would remain loyal to his family and his beliefs, sacrificing anything in order to protect them.
He would live through hardships of a gangster living in Russia. His character would give the viewers a glimpse on what it was like to live in Russia in the 1990's.
Demographic Characteristics: Young and Poor
Representation:
The main issue that the main character would face would be the reality of the criminal world. He initially sees it as a way to help his cousin, to get himself situated and make some money to live off. What he doesn't see, is the gloomy, dirty, vile atmosphere in Russia. The people he encounters are creepy and horrid with less than desirable motives. He becomes disgusted with the sleaze and the deteriorated environment, and has a desire to do something about it. I would like to challenge the role of a criminal, a naive young man who participates in crime and realizes the undertone of it, making him a stronger person despite his flaws.
