Synopsis

Our production is going to be based on the genre of ‘crime thriller’. The story involves two opposing groups of people, one group of youths and one group of adult gangsters. The story begins with one of the youths, he is seen to be the runt of the group as he doesn’t agree with their stereotypical yobbish behaviour, he just wants to study, but peer pressure is seen to get the better of him. This is apparent when they have congregated at a marketplace. They see a stall and the runt is dared to steal something, little does he know, in the background are two gangsters in a car who happen to own the stall the youths are eyeing up. The runt is defeated by peer pressure and he goes for it, stealing a simple piece of clothing. The youths then flee the scene with the gangsters not far behind them. When the gangsters finally get hold of the runt youth, he is woken in a garage setting with fog and lights intensifying the mood. He comes face to face with the gangsters and dialogue is traded between the few characters involved. The runt chav is given the ultimatum; he either stays in the garage unknown to anyone else and beaten, or he works for the gangsters. He chooses the gangster path and the shot which shows this is when we see him return home and replace all his studying equipment with things associated with crime such as weapons and wads of cash.
