The desk for investigation This location will always be available. Its at one of the group members house, its in Harlesden its very close to the school so
it will be easy to have access at any time to this place.
You can just walk from school to the house. About 7mins walk.
There are no health and safety concerns as it is situated at a safe house.
Location
Not showing the full scenes.
Showing her open the door, but not showing what happens inside fully.
Leaving the audience to think why is she admitting that she has killed them
Where do the men go, you see them go in but not coming out.
The narration is creating enigma, because at the end the narration is of the start of the poem Salome.
Creating enigma?

Narative
1st – Her with the detective present
2nd – Flashback of her with the men past
Non-linear
Luara&Kauana
We are using the theory of Vladimir Propp came up with stereotyped characters•
Valetina(main girl) – will be the typical villain The men( one of the men) – will be the
typical victim
Mr Smith (investigator) – typical victim/helper.
