- Murder - serial - sacrificial.
- Kidnap - torture - ransom - serial kidnapping.
- Revenge - death / imprisonment of innocent family member - beaten / abused as child.
- Flashbacks - to tell the whole story (plot begins at the end of the story) - to the time they had been kidnapped / tortured.
- Plot: Girl kidnapped at young age, we then see her when she's older still in the room, escapes, seeks revenge on her kidnappers.
- Narrative: Girl kidnapped from a park, she is kept in the same room for 12 years being kept alive by her captors through a small hole in the locked door through which she is supplied with food and water. She has been kidnapped because her Father failed to complete a job for the kidnappers, so she was taken for leverage. After being held hostage for 12 years she loses hope of any rescue and so decides to escape herself. After escaping she discovers her parent's murder and so seeks revenge on her kidnappers for both her imprisonment and the death of her family.
The difference between a Plot and a Narrative is that a Plot is what the spectator will see on screen and the chronological order of the scenes can be manipulated, whereas the Narrative is the character's whole story and is always in chronological order. The plot uses ellipsis to eliminate the story events that are not important.
Your very difficult task will be to recreate a setting that looks like 2001. The park cannot be too modern - you dont want new equipment from now. Car models, van makes , costume - will they all signify 2001? This is only if we see her being kidnapped. The whole authenticity of your piece will hinge on this i feel.
