Character poster:

In the poster you are able to see two characters, a girl and the face of a boy. you can tell that they are the main characters as they are the only people you can see in the poster. 

The girl in the poster, you can see most of her body, and you can tell that she running this could suggest that she is trying to aim for something e.g. a goal that she wants to achieve. the boy in the poster, is mainly focused on his head as this is all you can see. his face takes up most of the poster and it is hard to see his face clearly this could suggest he is a important character in the film. with his face blurred out it may show that he doesn’t have authority but might gain it during the film, this could explain why his head takes up most of the poster but is hard to see. 

Unique selling point:

The unique selling point for the film is that it is based in India in the slums, this is different because.
