She Knew the Risks

We’re presented with a static shot featuring white text on a bright blue background, stating, ‘She knew the risks.’ The scene then shifts to an indoor setting, where two young men, who appear to be in their teens, are sitting side by side on a grey couch, both engrossed in their smartphones; the young man on the left has dark hair and is wearing a yellow zip-up hoodie, while the one on the right has lighter hair and a blue denim shirt.

Between the two young men, speech bubbles appear with text suggesting a digital conversation; we see one of them typing out messages such as, ‘So did Jennie send you that photo you asked for?’, ‘Yeah,’ ‘Send me it,’ ‘IDK,’ ‘I told her I wouldn’t share it,’ and ‘So what.’ To this, the other replies, ‘She knew the risks when she sent it.’

The video then transitions, presenting text overlaid on the scene of the two young men that reads, ‘Nobody deserves to have a sext shared. There’s no excuse for sharing a sext.’ The video concludes with the Media Smarts logo on a white background.
