It's about talking on the Internet and how you don't know who you are talking to.
It's about a girl who is fourteen and lives in Chicago who, when goes on her laptop, meets up with a 25 year old man on the Internet.He asked to meet up with her. She agrees to meet up with him without telling anybody Then when they meet he takes her to a cafe before giving her a 'present' in the car. After meeting up at the mall the 25 year old man takes the girl to a motel an sexually assaulted her.
Then after this she doesn't talk to him again and then calls the police stating she had been sexually assaulted. The parents are then informed and the FBI get involved to investigate the problem.
A few weeks later the FBI get possible suspects but none match the description the girl gave them. The girl then phones the man she met on the Internet and he answers. However, working out that the FBI is tracking the phone call, he slams the phone down. This is the point were the parents start investigating and everything in the house becomes in tense.
In end the girl hugs the farther after saying she forgives him and during the end credits we see that the paedophile is in fact a school teacher who has a family of his own.
I think this film is relevant to our TIE project because it shows that you shouldn't arrange to meet strangers. This is shown, in our project, when Maurica(Sharah) arrange to meet Ahmed (Daz) who is compete stranger. Although the age is the same the main importance of it is the message.
'I think we should meet' Charlie (the fake ID) invites Annie (the victim) to meet him at the mall after grooming her.
The last scene where Annie makes up with her father.
The end credits scene.
It is a home video of a man is a married physics teacher who has one son. His name is George Weston (Charlie's real life name).
