Plot Synopsis:
The film will start with a white-collared man coming home
from work, entering through the door, hanging his coat etc (normal monotonous
daily routine). The scene will then lead into the kitchen where the man will
greet his wife, continuing his routine, such as making a cup of tea. After some
‘normal’ conversation between the husband and wife, the woman will then mention
a noise from down stairs asking if he can “see what is going on”. The man will
then proceed to go downstairs to the basement where he shall enter a room full
of people in cages and dead bodies on the floor. The man will then have a conversation
with the people in the room/talk to himself (therefore showing his mental state). There will be shots
showing newspaper cuttings, scribbles and photos all over the walls. The scene
will then cut to his wife coming down the stairs and the tension will build for
the audience, however as the wife enters the room it appears that she knows
about this. There will then be a shot where eye contact between the wife and a
victim in the room is shared, the audiences last hope is the wife, and now
knowing that she is in on the plan too the audience will feel very at ease. The
wife will then calmly say that the dinner is ready and they will both exit the
room.
