Shooting Fascists
Story
When a anonymous busker starts performing about her dead granddad, she amasses a crowd who are touched by her honest and intimate performance. However, when she utters the line 'Your granddad didn't vote for fascists, he shot 'em', the crowd leave with haste to avoid being associated with the political undertones of her performance.
Theme
The film has a political undertone what with the song title however this is not its intended theme. The film is more about relationships and how young people often feel under appreciated by others.
Tone
This film would be considered a feel good film as despite its younger, angsty cast and audience, the primary aim of the film to leave the audience feeling good.
Genre
The genre of this film would be considered musical. The film is an adaption of a character introduction for a feature length film of the same genre.
I would consider it a musical film because it was written around the songs and idealogies of band 'The King Blues'.
Plot
When a punky young busker performs her song in the middle of a busy city, she gathers a large crowd on interested passerby's. However, when she reaches the chorus of the song and sings the line 'Your grandad didn’t vote for fascists, he shot 'em', the entire crowd... all except one boy who is watching from a distance. He smiles and the film ends.
Characters
Busking Girl
An alternative,'rock chic' who is proudly anti-establishment and shows this by singing her songs in public.
Watching crowd
Everyday passersby that are struck by the girls song. However, as soon as the song challenges what they know as 'normal', they leave in haste.
Boy on wall
After the crowd departs and the girls song is over, one person is left smiling. Sat on a wall across the park is a teenage boy who is interested by the girl.
Setting
A park/grassy area in a big city. Amongst the hussle and bussle of everyday life, this green spot reflects the busking girls personality.
