Showcase: Is It Worth It



'Is It Worth It' which can be found here or on YouTube.

Length: 14:56
Written and directed by Peter Forbes
Genre: Drama
Date: 2012
Starring: Connor McNeill and Mark McCrone

Logline: A near eighteen year old risks losing out to a hot girl if he doesn't go to her nightclub party so naively decides to use fake ID, not realising the terrible consequences of getting caught. 

Initiated by the Aberdeen City Alcohol & Drug Partnership, this film comes from up and coming writer/director Peter Forbes who shows he not only has a good eye for the camera but can also relate to the teen market in an engaging and relevant manner.  

Best Bit: Makes a boring educational film entertaining plus delivers the message hard.

Worst Bit: Length. This is for delinquent teens with goldfish attention spans remember.

Final thought: Check out actor Mark McCrone in another good Aderdonian film - Deid.
