Coming of Age is another genre that is included into our film. This is a genre that focuses on psychological and moral growth of a protagonist who is growing from youth to adulthood. Personal growth is the most important characteristic in this genre as it relies on emotional responses and dialogue, rather than action.
Our film 'Verses' also focuses on the genre 'Coming Of Age'. This is the
growth of a protagonist from youth to adulthood. The roll of a Coming of Age film is usually based on a story of a typical male in their mid teens, which relates well to our film, having our main character being a young boy
called Declan Mulligan.
