Storyline

A young women returns to her abandoned family home. She wants to recover a picture of her murdered family but as soon as she enters the house her mind plays tricks with her and she experiences a nervous breakdown.

So far so good, sounds nice and the team likes it. Now, how can we pull this off? I think to create an atmosphere and a feeling of angst, strong shadows and low key light will do the trick. Some creepy camrea pans and a few whispers would help as well. It wont be easy to do this but we hope that our little film is gonna satisfy the audience.

There is a great german nouvelist from the 18th century who I can only recommend. He actually use his nouvells as a Camera Obscura, it tells you a real story but upside down.
Can we trust our eyes and what we believe is reality?
Are we able to escape or change our "reality"?

A masterpiece from the "Black Romantic" period. It is a bit chewy sometimes but it´s worth it.
