Our media product subverts Todorov's Theory of Narrative. Although the beginning of the film looks calm from the doctor explaining what happened at the beginning we know that something really bad happened. This is not equilibrium because the mum is crying so clearly something is wrong. You already have a problem from the start.
There is also the problem of there being an absence of people, the main character acknowledges it and therefore seeks for the solution. Although it is not directly shown, it is vaguely connoted through the short narrative. This uses conventions as thriller films should make the audience start to question what is going on straight away to get them hooked into the film. I think we did that well because it is confusing and that is built slowly.
We had researched existing thriller films and we set to follow the model or pattern. We didn't use trailers, however, we used posters for the movie. Taking into account that not every poster looks the same, so 2 posters were made, one for the UK version, one for international countries.
