What is the film about?

A Romanian immigrant arrives in U.K. with hope of making money, however things are not what he hoped for - he is out of pocket due to expensive living costs, is having difficulties understanding the foreign language and misses his home country and culture. He receives a letter for deportation sending him home, he has failed his goal to live and make more money in the U.K. but is happy to be going home


What if any current issues impact on the film and how will these be addressed in the film?

The increase in immigration in the U.K. shown from the immigrants point of view.There is a largely negative outlook on people who move into the U.K. to reap its benefits and can be seen as free loaders, therefore widely disliked by British nationals. However this film depicts the situation from the the immigrants point of view to adopt a more sympathetic outlook on their situation.


How you 'see' the film (visual styles, audio, motifs).

U.K. scenes to be fairly depressing and grey, flashback scenes to Romania to be colourful and bright.U.K. scenes to be quiet except for awkward annoying sounds - phone rig,fan etc.


Some idea of how the film will be crewed by yourselves.
