Films in the UK have to be classified by a company called the BBFC before they are allowed to be shown in any cinemas or sold on DVD. I researched the BBFC to find what cetrificate I believe that my group's shot film would be classified at and believe it would be most sutilabe to be classifed at a 12A rating.
Here is the link to the BBFC website where is explains what the guidlines for a 12A are and a screenshot of them from their classification guidelines. http://www.bbfc.co.uk/what-classification/12a-and-12
A rating of a 12A means that anyone over the age of 12 can watch the film, or anyone below the age of 12 can also watch the film as long as the are accompanied by an adult.
I think the my groups film would be best suited at a 12A certificate as it will include viloance and antisocial behaviour, such as carrying knives and being in a gang, that would not be suitable ofr anyopne of a younger age. However, these are only moderatly and tehre is no major violance or themes that would have a negative infulacne on most people so it would not be suitated at a 15 or 18 certificate.
