Final detailed summary of our film

Our Final Idea

After getting our potential audience's feedback on what films they would prefer to see, through the use of our recorded questionnaire, we have made a final decision on what our storyline will contain. The audience were split between the two ideas, some liking idea number one and some liking idea number two, taking this into consideration we have decided to merge the two stories into one which could potentially attract a wider audience including our two ideas from the brainstorm, our film has the twist ending (which was Laura's area of the brainstorm) and is based around the saying "don't judge a book by it's cover" (which was Nikki's area of the brainstorm). 

The teenager is the main character in the film, and hates living at home. Her parents are always embarrassing her in front of friends, walking into her room, texting and ringing to ask what time she is going to be home, telling them not to eat junk food...etc. An argument between the family takes place one day over something and nothing, and the girl storms into her room, wishing she didn't have parents. During the argument, the girl's parents tried to tell her that they were planning to go visit a relative who is ill and would be flying that night, but of course she did not listen.
She goes out to the park near her house to cool down, and as she enters, a girl with a dog passes her and drops an armful of files. The main character stops to help her pick them up, and they go their separate ways. As the main character settles onto one of the swings, she hears the girl arguing with another girl in a hoody, and looks over. The girl in the hoody is shouting at her, and grabs for something in her hand. The girl with the dog runs away, and the second girl runs toward her, looking aggressive.
 At this point, the screen fades out to black, and the title of the film appears 'Jumping to Conclusions'. Then the screen fades back in and the whole scene plays out again but in black and white, and this time around, the entire sequence is shown from a different angle.
At the point when the girl dropped her files and the main character bent down to help her pick them up, there is a slow motion shot of the girl reaching into the main character's bag to steal her phone.
The sequence then continues where it left off and the colour fades back into the shot as the girl in the hoody hands her the phone and says 'I was taking this back for you.' When the main character then apologizes, the girl says 'That's alright. I know her, she's been done a few times for stealing. Just be careful when you're out here.'
