[edit] Information

For the first time ever in this country, 16- and 17-year-olds have been given the right to vote and nearly 100,000 have registered to take part in the referendum on Scottish independence. Filmed over a year and all over Scotland, these two films offer a snapshot of what it's like to be 16 in 2014. Part 1. We meet Ida in Morar, Brandon in Cumbernauld, Natalie from Glasgow, David in Dumfries and Halima, born in Nigeria but now living in Dundee, all reveal the issues that concern them, from school to mental health and the frustrations of being 16. Part 2. We meet football-mad Kieran in Wick, would-be actress Margot in Skye, apprentice joiner Gaelan in Shetland, musician Gregor in Kilmarnock and Amy-Jo from Kirriemuir who's learning to fly. They share their thoughts about family relationships, first love and their hopes and fears for the future.
