BBC iPlayer- Broken

This long shot illustrates to the viewers what the location of the shot is and it also portrays a female character in the mise-en-scene who is surrounded by huge houses which in turn make her looks very tiny and young. The character is young and her being the only present character in the mise-en-scene suggest that the neighbourhood she's in is safe.

The mid shot illustrates the male character present int he mise-en-scene as a kind and friendly looking man. He is wearing work clothing and the props (car, house and the uniform) present int he mise-en-scene illustrate to the audience that he is a hard working and helpful man. He is interacting with another character in a positive way and that is portrayed by his positive facial expressions and hand gestures. 

This is a cut away in an action. This shot is between the girl's dad attacking a man and she is looking outside to have a look at what is going on. This cut away is a distraction from the main action occurring in the mise-en-scene. Close up of the character in the mise-en-scene which portrays her facial expression which is quite concerned. Her facial expression illustrates that the girl is upset about what is about to happen and her facial expression illustrates that she has realised that what she has done was wrong.

This is a mid close up shot which portrays feelings of the female character present in the mise-en-scene. The background present in the mise-en-scene is very dull and looks like it wasn't cared about. That could suggest that there is no grown up female present in the house because stereotypically it's the females who look after the house.
This is a two shot. In this shot the older girl is telling the younger girl (both are present int he mise-en-scene) to go back inside after witnessing their dad attacking another man. This illustrates to the audience/viewers that there might be no motherly figure present int he house to tell the girls to get back inside (or to stop the father). Furthermore, that shows that the girls need to care for each other.
