Synopsis/Details
Peter, a bright boy from a rural village, dreams of escaping poverty and becoming successful. Through determination and hardship, he makes it to college and begins investing in crypto, hoping to create a better life for himself and support his father. But Peter’s journey is full of emotional landmines — he falls in love with Lucy, unaware she’s in a secret relationship with his best friend, Sam. As Peter rises from poverty to wealth, betrayal brews quietly behind his back. When he marries Lucy and starts a family, everything seems perfect — until she frames him for the murder of their baby in a shocking twist of manipulation. Imprisoned, broken, and betrayed, Peter loses everything. But when the truth comes out and revenge finds its way back through an unexpected ally, justice is served — not in court, but on the cold streets. A haunting story of blind love, betrayal, and redemption.

The Writer: Nelson Eziam

I’m a passionate screenwriter from Nigeria who tells emotional, dramatic stories about love, betrayal, survival, and justice. My debut screenplay When the Bed Bled is a powerful drama/thriller based on real emotions and imagination — a tragic story of trust, ambition, and heartbreaking revenge. I believe stories can heal, warn, and inspire. I’m looking to connect with producers or directors who want bold, raw, and unforgettable scripts that touch the heart. Go to bio
