Our finalised idea

We are sticking with the idea that we previously blogged, except we have made some changes. This is the film idea that our opening is based on.

A teenage girl has argument with her mum (it is unclear what the argument is about, but there is a sense that the girl has changed and the mother is worried about her) who kicks her out of the house. She turns to alcohol and one drunken night she breaks into her house and is arrested. She's sent to a youth rehabilitation centre where she see's other teenagers in worse situations than she is. Reluctantly she begin to let the youth workers in, one women in particular and as the film progresses we find out about the girl's life in detail and exactly why she was arrested.

The opening of the film will start with her walking, drunkardly, down a road at night, with POV shots to demonstrate the blurry world that she can see through intoxicated eyes. She reaches a house and shoulders the door, breaking into it. On the floor of the hall she is now in there is a framed photograph on the floor. A flashback is then seen of the girl and a women arguing, ending with the women shouting "Get out!". It then cuts back to the girl at night. She walks up the stairs, then seeing another picture which she picks up and begins to get sad. She walks into her bedroom, which looks very feminine, contrasting with her hooded figure, implying she has changed a lot, and looks absently out of the window, she then feels nauseous and falls back onto her bed, hearing the sound of her mother shouting over and over again. This then causes her to stumble and knock over a pile of photographs. Time has passed and the girl is seen sitting cross-legged on the floor, looking at all the pictures; it is obvious she has been crying. Suddenly a police siren is heard, and in a series of jump cuts she is put into a police car which drives away. The titles "Revive" are then seen.
