Plot Synopsis;

We created a plot to help us with our filming and to give us the idea of the sort of things we wanted to convey in our thriller film trailer.

A young adult; woman around the age of 24 suffers from Dissociative identity disorder (but doesn’t realise that she does). She has a baby and happily takes it home and becomes a single mother because her partner recently passed away; due to being killed in Afghanistan, this lead to her being diagnosed with depression but she tried to put it aside because of the baby. Even though the stress of the baby leads to anxiety.
It soon goes horribly wrong when the baby is killed, all the family thinks it has died due to Sudden infant death syndrome often referred to as ‘cot death’. However the mother does not believe it has died of naturally causes and believes her baby was killed by something/someone. She constantly has a dream of this memory of the ‘figure’ however the ‘figures’ face was never shown.
Convinced by this she goes to the help and investigations of the police. However they do not find any substantial evidence that anyone was involved, and list it as natural causes. Not letting this rest, as her dreams get more vivid and frequent, and her actions more out of place. The ‘figure’ becomes more apparent, to the point in which she see’s it is a woman. She hires a private investigator in the hope of solving this mystery and putting these dreams to rest. The private investigator becomes consumed in this story and the only solution due to the woman’s unusual actions and the depression, lead to the conclusion it was her. She will not take this as an answer and becomes violent trying to find her baby. She becomes dangerous to the public and other mothers, so she is taken into a psychiatric ward, were a door closes and her eyes open.
