Synopsis/Details
A director requested a short dramatic scene between two actors in a contained setting. He wanted to shoot the scene for practice, never for public release. This is what I wrote for the assignment.

It really is more of a scene than a story, though there is a story to be had in the telling. If you're looking to shoot something that's dark and intense, this short could be for you. It could be shot as is, or we could look at ways to fill the story out more completely. I'd be happy to help if that's what you had in mind.
