Additional Project Info

Script coverage/analysis by Barnstorm in November 2024 was stellar, an average of 8.43 in all categories and a 10 in premise. Script was runner up in round 2 of The Ultimate Thriller Screenplay Competition by Breaking Walls. And although he passed, Dror Soref made the following comments on my written pitch to him via Stage 32: I like the pitch, and the project in general. The pitch delivery is very good, and the writer's personality comes thru. It does feel like the writer knows the world he is writing about. The presentation is clear and to the point. This is a very good concept. As hinted, one gets a real glimpse into a world we know nothing about (speaking for myself). The plot is well drafted. As for marketability, I think the good part is that many movies with this kind of theme have been made, the drawback is that it therefore competes with many other projects... I like it even though I would pass, just because it doesn't fit what I currently concentrating on. Well Done!
