I am planning on making an issue based film opening on domestic violence. I want to make the opening shocking. I will either have happy music at the beginning contrasted with the serious content later on, or no music with exaggerated sound effects (loud footsteps and opening doors etc).
Plot:
A girl goes to her friend's house. When she knocks on the door it is partially opened by her friend's mother. (She keeps the chain on the door.) The camera angles will be carefuly selected so that we can't ever see the mother's face. The mother tells the girl that her friend can't see her because she's got too much homework to do.
The girl decides that she will sneak around the back of the house to see her friend anyway, and finds her sitting in the garden with a hood over her head and glasses covering her eyes. They have a forced conversation for a while until the girl asks about her stepfather.
Her friend takes her sunglasses off and reveals a black eye.
