Title and connotations

We have called our film 'Affliction'. Affliction can be defined by "a cause of pain or harm" or "the state of being in pain" this connotes with our film which shows how being a teenager isn't all fun and games and has a serious and sometimes painful side to it, this is all made clear in the title sequence and opening scene. The title can also connote to the characters individually as they are all suffering their own problems personally which can be painful.
