Representation in "Gone"

Who is being represented in "Gone"

The only character that is mainly being represented is the missing boy. He is portrayed as maybe a lonely figure that is gone missing. Not much is actually established with the boys personality as there is no dialogue. But the first impression that you gain from watching the opening sequence is that the boy is a very mysterious character who has maybe encountered very mystery events in the due course of becoming missing.

What is also being represented is how people actually view someone going missing. When a young person goes missing everyone usually jumps to a assumption that possibly that they have been kidnapped when it is not always the case. People forget that young children will have many strange thoughts and will not take into consideration what is going on in the child's life and will just jump to a assumption.
