Setting/Location

  • Hounslow Heath

The scene where Ethan runs and gets abused will be shot there during the evening/night. I chose this place because the atmosphere will combine well with the emotion during the scene.

The third location will be Ethan's bedroom, the scene that show Ethan having nightmares is shot.
