The potential plot of our film.

The first plot idea we had, was that a somebody was plotting to blow up the government, whilst another person within the government tries to stop the plotter. It would become a battle of wits between the two men... until finally at the end, the audience discover that there is only one man. The character is a rare form Schizophrenic, the variation being that this man literally has a split personality. So it comes about that the man plotting to destroy the government, is the same man trying to defend it... though he doesn't realise it.


Pros:-

  • Gripping storyline
  • Political/Psychological thriller conventional
Cons:-
  • Impossible to portray within 2 minutes, as we would have to reveal that the protagonist and antagonist are the same man within the films opening. This would result in the audience losing interest as the plot would have already been revealed
