character description

we used three actors. Simran, the girl is the main lead whereas the two kidnappers make an appearence in the end. Simran is a girl who is tired of her parents always fighting. she is suffering from poor mental health because of her family issues and cant seem to concentrate on her studies as well. she is immature, emotionally weak, tired and frustrated. the actors are in their mid 30s and shown as very strong and dominant just as male are represented in the mass media. one of them is person of color which again shows that people of color are involved in these type of activities. this way we have shown a lot of mispresentations in our film opening which are commonly shown in the media products regularly.
