TEESSIDE sixth formers have made a film about death.

The students at Stockton Sixth Form have made eight ten-minute films that will be woven together in the drama.

Described by the college as avant garde, the film takes death as its theme and will be shown in the spring.

Gary Widdowfield, head of media studies at the college, said: "The film-makers gave up their own time as part of our enrichment programme to make the film, and some of the stories are filmed in their own homes.

"The students decided what they wanted, and they have done everything themselves from beginning to end.

"It will be in colour for digital video, and I think it is going to be a box office sell out in the college."
