Suitable for 12 years and
over. No-one younger than 12 may see a ‘12A’ film in a cinema unless
accompanied by an adult.
Theme:
Mature themes are acceptable, but their
treament must be suitable for young teenagers.
Language: The use of strong language (eg 'f***') must be infrequent.
Racist abuse is also of particular concern.
Nudity: Nudity is allowed, but in a sexual context it must be brief
and discreet.
Sex: Sexual activity may be implied. Sex references may reflect
what is likely to be familiar to most adolescents but should not go beyond what
is suitable for them.
Violence:
Violence must not dwell on detail. There
should be no emphasis on injuries or blood. Sexual violence may only be implied
or briefly and discreetly indicated.
Imitable
techniques: Dangerous techniques (eg
combat, hanging, suicide and self-harming) should not dwell on imitable detail
or appear pain or harm free. Easily accessible weapons should not be
glamorised.
Horror: Sustained moderate threat and menace are permitted.
Occasional gory moments only.
Drugs: Any misuse of drugs must be infrequent and should not be
glamorised or instructional.
Discrimination:
The film or DVD as a whole must not
approve of language or behavior that would offend a person’s religion, colour,
gender, sexuality or disability. Aggressive use of this type of language and
behavior is unacceptable unless clearly not approved of.

This would be the most suitable rating for our film as there are common references to violence, but this is not the focus of the film.
