Love, Honour, Cherish

Scott and Carly are 16 and they are in love. Then, Scott tells Carly that he wants to take their relationship to the next level and sleep with her. But is this what Carly wants? And is Scott really ‘ready’ like he says he is? As both Scott and Carly spend time apart thinking about their relationship, they encounter two vastly different situations – Scott engages in a dangerous game of ‘sexting’, whilst Carly ponders the place of sex in a relationship whilst at her Mum and Dad’s silver wedding anniversary party. Carly knows deep down that she wants something different, but can she put this into words?

“Love, Honour, Cherish” is a challenging short film for young people who are entering relationships for the first time.
