Description of opening sequence
Start on blackout and the sound of wind blowing, with the sentence of the production company, and as the wind builds and builds, at one point there is a close up on a girl's eyes as they open with silence as they open and the sound of wind in the background blowing quieter. She looks left to right and then sits up in bed looking tired and seemingly in pain. She looks around the room in slight confusion and here's the sound of someone calling her name as she looks to the door, also confused and surprised. Suddenly she gets a flashback of people grabbing her and her crying and screaming and gets pulled out of it when her name is yelled again and she calls back, "um, coming." So before she leaves the room she gets up from her bed and looks around the room, afraid to touch anything, with a few shots from the top corners of the room, like its security cameras looking into her room. Then she walks through the door with the camera behind her as the door closes in its' face and then the title of the movie coming up on the screen like its on the door called "memories" (working title).
Summary of whole film
Apocalyptic sci-fi story. One day, everyone wakes up on the world with no memory of how they got there nor of their life before. except for one girl, who wakes up the same way as everyone else, but has traumatising flashbacks of people surrounding her, hurting her and pushing her around until she blacks out. The movie is about her finding out why she is having these flashbacks when everyone else seems to be happy and content with the lives they've been blindly given. When she meets a mysterious man he is able to help guide her along the way, but her flashbacks get stronger and more violent. They meet another girl as they're searching for more clues about this strange world, and this girl is one of the smartest in the world, despite her said age of 15. They are soon able to find a strange door in a building, one with massive screens of different areas of the town they were living in. We then learn, once they get to the control room and the leader's office that the head of the operation was in fact the girl who they met who said she was 15. The whole town was an experiment to see what would happen if they wiped people's memories and placed them in a town that was poor and with different families whom they had never seen before. The protagonist of the film was the only one who had memories of getting there, and therefore the head of the experiment led both the protagonist and the mysterious guy to the headquarters so that they could capture them and throw them in prison, of which they do successfully and are able to carry on the experiment.
