Written by David Sweet

CAST LIST:

NARRATOR – Gabriel Darku
VERONICA – Laura Kyswaty
MASSEY – Peter Nelson

SYNOPSIS:

Genre: Crime, Mystery, Thriller

It is about entertaining – I am not being flippant. The aim is to present an ingenious drama supported by realistic detail and capped with an outrageous twist ending.

Get to know the writer:

What is your screenplay about?

It is about entertaining – I am not being flippant. The aim is to present an ingenious drama supported by realistic detail and capped with an outrageous twist ending.

The themes, if that is what you have in mind, are to do with love and hate, revenge, and psychological disconnection.

What genres does your screenplay under?

I would call the work a ‘chiller’ – or more elaborately it would, I guess, fall into the category of being a psychological crime mystery.
