As a sub-genre, Psychological Drama is often a vehicle for hybrid films, encompassing complex characters, dramatic events or even large-scale finales. Thus, the balance of such films are delicate, with each decision (in filming and editing) upsetting this balance, and tilting the film more towards a certain, more widespread genre, such as action or thriller.
Due to this ever-changing definition of psychological films, the target audience is also amorphous, and changes with each movie. This means that for our film, we had no pre-determined genre-specific target audience (such as romcoms being aimed at adult women, and horror flicks for young adults), and were therefore able to let our film define its own audience.
It is aimed at anyone from young adult to old age, any gender. It deals with specific, unique events with stories that can apply universally (with themes such as family, love, friendship). However, the foreign language and those darker, heavily-debated/opinionated themes (namely, child kidnapping) make this very much a non-mainstream film, intended for audiences who enjoy such films.
