The Storyline and Mind Map

Mind Map for our different film ideas:


Story:
A woman's (Roseanne) family was taken from her at a young age (her parents are killed by order of a corrupt, jealous business man) so she goes to live with her grandparents. There she develops skills and her need for vengeance grows. She receives a tip off from an anonymous source about another person involved with her parents' deaths. She tracks down this person and tortures them for information which leads to another target involved with the deaths. Each target brings her closer to the corrupt business man and each target forces her to remember things from her past (both happy and horrific memories), Eventually, many targets later, she ends up face to face with the man who killed her parents. She fights off henchmen but ends up pinned against a window by the business man. She demands that he tells her why he had her parents killed and it turns out the parents and himself were all friends in the past and had fallen in love with Roseann's mother but she was with her father at the time.
The businessman went behind their backs and stole their idea for their business and became rich and powerful. With his new found power, he hired a hitman to kill the father so the mother would go with him, but something went wrong and the hitman ended up killed both of them.
After he tells this story, Roseann manages to take control of him as she is up against a window and he is now in the position she was in. She pushes him out of the window, turns and walks away.

We hope the audience would be able to feel sorry for Roseann but at the same time question what she's doing - is it right? The memories shown are supposed to give the audience some back story to what happened to Roseann and her parents. The plot twist at the end, about the business man liking her mother, was supposed to make the audience maybe feel bad for him and sympathize with his thoughts instead of hating him like the film was leading up to happening.
