When looking over our responses from the showcase evening, their was one in particular that pointed out for a possible improvement we should not have used mental health for entertainment yet I felt that our final opening did not explicitly say whether it was the girl in the hospital who killed her friend, and this illustrates society's judgement to quickly assume that those suffering from mental issues cannot be innocent as we have kept our plot open to ambiguity and possibility.
Furthermore, the topic of mental health has to be spoken about in some ways rather than being censored and we chose to do it through this way as their is constant stigma surrounding those affected by mental health as it rejects society's norms and ideal of being 'normal'.
