This picture helped us to understand the reason why arranged marriage is despicable. Most partners aren't even allowed to meet until the day of the wedding. And from the picture we can see they normally stay anonymous to each other. This shows us that there is barely any feeling in these arranged marriages. The men see the woman as a requirement to keep a family being raised. And the women are there to literally clean up for them and to raise their children, pretty silly right? So with our piece we plan to make sure that dom (the son) is exactly like his father; arrogant. Cruel. Sees a wife as an object. Is quite the shovanist. And for Freya she is quite lost because her mother passed away and me (her father) I am very forcing of her to marry this young man. However they meet before the wedding (awkward) I think we've proved the point and stuck to the picture quite well.
These two pictures are showing us the harrowing truth of human trafficking. Women are taken off the street wether that be through kidnapping or being promised a better place to go to. These women are tricked into becoming sex salves. The bottom picture shows a girl in handcuffs with help me written on her hands. She wants out so much. But she will never get help because she is so restrained. There is nothing she can do but live her life pleasing men. This we'll hit the audience hard. The above picture shows a girl with a barcode on her head. This shows that she is being sold to lots of different men. Shows that to these men she's just an object. That can be reused. Which is so incredibly wrong, we want to show its wrong by being very rough with ellie who is going to be playing the main girl, she is abused and abused until she eventually is killed, nobody batts an eye in the end which really should hit the audience. The basic idea we get from the picture is that the women are completely helpless. Freya who is a girl who has been in the trade for a while helps ellie to get used to it, we use a deliberate term to also get a good effect, that quote being "use a slave to catch a slave."
In this picture above we see a distressed woman running away with her child, note how there is no husband in the picture supporting the woman, he has probably already fled. The picture is showing us how much we need to get across that the child is in danger, we can in my opinion perhaps use alot of physical theatre, to show maybe the mother and child being separated, however the difficult part of physical theatre is making sure the audience is understanding whats going on, so we need to make it clear whats happening, maybe show soldiers attacking then the families fleeing, kind of like a story board. The other picture shows a group of females carrying babies, even a young girl is having the responsibility of carrying a baby, two young boys are also in the shot and again, the fathers are nowhere to be seen, we need to show this, however it will be difficult because we don't have alot of girls in our group, in fact only two, so its going to be difficult, we may have to use physical theatre or just make our classmate dom dress up as a girl, that could possibly work. It should be distressing for the audience to see a mother and child struggling to find safety, and i want to show how every country keeps turning them away, and they become more and more desperate.
