Echo is a short film that follows 17-year-old Caroline, as she receives a phone call delivering the tragic news that her dad has been involved in a motorbike accident. Her unexpected reaction reveals there is more to this call than first appears. Based on a real life event witness by writer James Walker. The opening scene of the film deceives the viewer as our original response to the character is to sympathise and be worried about her. This then changes as the film goes on to be shocked and unsure of her morals. Towards the end of the film we still see her in a pitiful way as we feel as though she needs to keep this act up. The fact that the sequence from the beginning is repeated at the end but with some additional changes leaves the ending open. It also emphases how much we learned about the character and how our view on the situation has changed.
