Relationships with other characters:
1. Character's Name: -- (Describe relationship with this character and changes to relationship over the course of the film). Matt, colleague at the call-centre. Develops a strange respect for Steve as his (Steve’s) desire for vengeance grows.
2. Character's Name: -- (Describe relationship with this character and changes to relationship over the course of the film). Simon, Steve’s new boss. Stephen learns throughout the course of the film that Simon used to abuse his Mum and Steve when he was younger.
3. Character's Name: -- (Describe relationship with this character and changes to relationship over the course of the film). Lisa, Steve's long-lost sister. Steve finds his sister two-thirds of the way through the film. Through talking to his sister he discovers the truth about his boss, this is shown through grainy flashbacks.

How character is different at the end of the film from when the film began: Throughout the course of the film, Steve works out that his new boss (Simon) is the man that used to beat him when he was younger. This takes a large proportion of the film to unravel. By the end he has taken his boss semi-hostage and is in a quandary…..whether or not to take his revenge.
