In our video we play around with dreams and reality. In our video their is a sequence in which the sisters run away, we later decided to have it as though the youngest sister was dreaming of running away and having her 'happily ever after', then she wakes up and she is faced with the reality of her life, the arguing parents.
The film Inception (2010) also plays around with dreams and reality. The main character Dom Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) is a skilled theif who steals secrets from peoples dreams. This is the opposite of what we are doing with our vdeo but is shows how the line between dreams and reality can become distorted and surreal. It also shows the state of the mind when certain events happen.
Another film called The Descent (2005) features a dream sequence that is like ours. The main character Sarah (Shauna MacDonald) dreams of escaping the cave which she is trapped inside with some monsters. The dream sequence shows her escaping safe and sound and as the audience you feel that she has escaped because we don't know its a dream yet. However as she nears her car she see her dead child and husband who had a tragic accident in another mountaineering expedition after this discovery she wakes up and we realise that she hasn't escaped at all and is still trapped with the creatures that killed her friends.
This scene resembles ours as it is a dream sequence which features an escape and a false sense of security only to wake up and find that everything is still the same.
