General synopsis for film:
Theo, 17, is attempting to make a new start at college and trying to turn his life around. Ever since his mum left him and his dad, due to his dad's anger problems, Theo has been abused and used by his dad as a release of anger, and has been influenced by his dad's behavior. The film follows his journey as he attempts to overcome his emotional and social issues as he tries to get away from what has happened.
Synopsis for opening sequence:
The sequence opens with a long shot of the first location, a field, to create a sense of serenity and calm, before the film gets too dramatic. We meet Theo, but his face is not revealed in the shots used, but we can see him showing nervous traits. E.g. twisting his hands and pulling at the grass.
We are then taken back into a flashback, showing the interior of his house at dusk, over the top of these shots we can hear his parents arguing and shouting. It is then revealed, through the mum, that his dad has anger issues.
Back to the present day action, Theo's voice is heard over the top of the shots explaining his situation as he makes his way out of the field and into town, the next genre-establishing location.
Right at the end of the sequence, there are shots of the band I'm using for the music, busking in the street, as a way to credit them. Theo then walks past a wall, and the actors name appears as a title.
