'About a Girl' released in 2001, is an example of a successful short film, based on the events of a true story. The short film won in total 8 awards, including a Bafta. Despite the majority of the feature depicting the life of a suppose ordinary young girl, the generic dialogue and everyday happenings, offered an obvious contrast to the shocking and unexpected ending, and overall message of the feature. Camera angles and narration assists in conveying the innocence and naivety of the girl compared to the act she was committing. Sad and eye opening, this short film skillfully conveys the concern of the writer, as well as educating the audience, in an unexpected area.
