How the films challenge conventions?

Drama films mostly depend on the in-depth

development of realistic characters who are dealing with emotion situations, such as drug addiction, poverty, corruption, etc. However, the film ‘Twilight’ challenges this convention as the story focuses on the relationship between a vampire and a mortal, this challenges the conventions of drama films as drama films depend mostly on characters that are realistic.
