Answer: Young boys and girls in middle or high school
Explanation:
''The Passing'' is a 2016 movie and it is following one car crash accident.
Since the story of ''The Passing'' isn't for kids I would say that the correct answer is that is written for a little bit older audience, boys and girls in the middle or in a high school.
- I would say that this is the right answer because Stanley(one of the characters) is showing a voyeuristic fascination because of one couple. Besides this situation, there are more situation between woman and man relationships which older audience can understand better.
At the end of the story, one of the characters ends up falling down which is also not a situation for children.
