They seem to be very popular in the UK, typical British gang culture films, based around knives, guns and youths mainly males where the majority of them end up in prison or dead, everyone's seen them for example Kidulthood, Adulthood,Bullet Boy and more. However you never really see one that stands out, one where you think oh that's different to that one because of this and so on. Me and Naomi intend to produce a film that falls into that genre but instead of sending out a negative message it sends out a positive message to its target audience, we want to add twists and flashbacks so the audience don't think its the typical youth film that they usually watch.

The Synopsis of "A New Ending" its a cold day in October, a few hours earlier Marlon just took part in a race where he came first and qualified to be in the Olympics 2012 something that he has dreamed of ever since he was a young boy. He should be celebrating, going out with his friends, or his family, an older brother maybe?, but no, Marlon cant afford to waste any time his going to train and train with his coach as much as he can. Its late and the coach is congratulating Marlon in qualifying but is letting him know that, its only the beginning, many people qualify but then give up because they cant seem to handle the pressure. Marlon's coach tells him that he needs to stay determined no matter what, he needs to think of something that he knows for sure will motivate him when he feels like giving up. From what the coach says Marlon reminds himself why he is doing this, and starts to reminisce about what happened years ago that had a major effect on his life since. Whilst he is training he is going over the event that took part in the past. Does Marlon's reminiscing help him strive for success or does it bring him down with the belief that he would never make it in life?
