LO1 Screen Play

 We begin with a shot of our protagonist entering a shop on a quiet street

He walks into the shop and nods at the person operating the counter  

The protagonist walks around the shop acting suspicious until he is eventually caught by the Boss man who owns the shop. 

He passes a news paper which will be used to show the time of date this takes place in 

This will lead to him running out of the shop onto the main street in which he will be ran over by a car that was going at high speeds

The title card is shown 

The protagonist wakes up in a bed looking dazed and confused 

He sees his friend waiting for him next to the bed, astonished that he is awake

He gets up to look at his phone which is full from messages from worried family members and friends, he also notices that a full month has passed since the accident and 

He has been in a coma for weeks and struggles out of bed continuing to talk to his friend that is next to him 

After a few short minutes of banter the protagonists starts to have headaches and begins to hear whispers inside his head

He heads to the bathroom and washes his face with water while hearing a comment that his friend makes about his accident, exclaiming that 'he would've never gotten hurt if he didn't steal from that Fucking corner shop' This causes the protagonist to look back at the mirror with a completely different facial expression 

He walks back into the room full of envy and anger towards his friend, stating that he has always had a better life and that he has to do these things because he cant afford real stuff. 

The protagonist walks out leaving the friend inside the house

While walking he is switching from each personality and we see how each one of them consume his mind

The audience see how he has been consumed by gluttony and is shown stealing food from some one that just bought it. 

There is then a montage of him doing many illegal and anti social activities, all because of his personalities. (we will show him drinking, doing drugs, stealing, also grabbing a knife in one scene....) This will intercut with scenes of his friend trying to find him. While he does these we will show how he really doesn't have much strength but instead uses fear against the people he clashes with to scare them 

Finally after this they finally meet up again and the protagonists friend wants to take him back home. 

The protagonists agrees but is cautious 

When they walk down his friend accidently mentions that the police are at the house, this freaks the protagonist out and causes him to become consumed by wrath and try to frighten his friend which doesn't work. This will continue into him to attack his friend. The fight scene should be shot very clumsily and stagnated to show how both people have no fighting ability, I also want to fixate on close up shots that show the protagonist disassociation when he eventually stabs his friend, focussing a lot on the protagonist expressions instead of the weapon he is using to kill his friend.

After this shots will continue to be claustrophobic and tight, hyper fixating on the protagonists while sirens slowing fade in while the screen cuts to black

It will then cut to a worried protagonist on top of a building, contemplating if he should jump or not. He will be pacing back and fourth looking down at the ground wondering if its worth it. Eventually he stops and strands completely still while the screen cuts to black and the credits role.
