AIMED AT A JUNIOR HIGH - HIGH SCHOOL AUDIENCE, THIS FILM PORTRAYS AN ARREST OF A YOUNG PERSON FOR DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL AND THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE ARREST.
Abstract
PORTRAYED IN FLASHBACK SEQUENCES, THE FILM SHOWS THE POLICE OFFICER PRIOR TO THE ARREST, THE ARREST, THE SOBRIETY TESTS, THE PROCEDURES TAKEN AT THE POLICE STATION, THE CONFERENCE WITH THE DEFENSE COUNSEL, THE TRIAL, AND A PEER GROUP 'RAP' SESSION AFTERWARDS. ALTHOUGH THE OFFICERS ARE EMINENTLY COURTEOUS, THE IGNOMINY OF BEING ARRESTED IS CLEARLY PORTRAYED.
