CommentsThe material contains complex and mature themes of death, dishonesty, lies versus truth, mystery, living a lie and double life, writing of a book, true author versus false author, prostitution, deception, love, friendships, love relationships, secrecy, betrayal, disappointment, family, being in prison, cruelty, loyalty, plagiarism, infidelity, theatrical plays and being an aspiring writer. Themes are of an adult nature which may be disturbing, distressing or upsetting to children under the age of 16 as they will not be able to comprehend the storyline which is full of mystery, infidelity with no clear resolutions and will leave the viewer hanging. Furthermore the prostitution aspect in the film may be confusing to children who are still developing cognitively.
