This could suggest the content that would be appropriate to show our target audience. 15 certificates are much easier to carry out and this may be a good option to consider as there is an abundance of themes that can be included but due to the age restriction, these themes must be cut off for less mature audiences. This will enable our thriller opening to contain themes of a grown up nature, i.e. violence, however, this can only be taken to a certain extent.
