This film was originally sent to the BBFC at the script stage. Based on a reading of the script the BBFC informed the company that the film was generally likely to fall within the desired '15' classification. However the company were advised that some scenes had the potential to take the film to '18' , or be otherwise problematic, dependent on how they were shot. In particular the BBFC advised that scenes featuring child actors should not be filmed in such a way as to sexualise the performers. It was also advised that scenes featuring suicides should be kept discreet and that novel detail which could be copied should be avoided. In a couple of cases the company were advised that specific lines of <b>sexual dialogue</b> should be removed or changed for the '15' classification. A version of the film was subsequently submitted to the BBFC prior to formal submission and most recommendations from the original script had been addressed. On formal submission of the finished version the changes remained evident and the film was classified '15'.
