Film synopsis;
In our opening sequence we are basing it around the disappearance/kidnapping of a young girl and how the mother deals with it. At the beginning we show the view of an ordinary life in contrast to an exciting/scary event e.g. a young girl getting kidnapped. We have the use of a jump cut between scenes to build tension and create a climax. We shell remain calm at first showing a lady in her home doing everyday events possibly cleaning or pottering around etc and change it back to the character of a young girl and show the relationship and link between characters by fading and zooming on a frame/picture of the both of them. We shell show the girl in a dark place, alone and scared to make the audience ask questions such as whats happened? Where is she? Whos behind it? and to raise attention to the character herself e.g. is there a reason she in paticular is there? We will reveal some and basic information or details to give a rough idea but not all information to make it exciting and interesting and to gain the audiences full attention making them engage and become intreagued as to whats happening. The film fits into the thriller theme because its exciting , using the emotion of fear and has the use of making you jump or become on edge.

The year is 1995, in a southern eastern London neighbourhood. The daughter of the mother is kidnapped by a mysterious stranger and the mother has a breakdown.The mother spends most of her time searching for her daughter alone, without the help of anyone including police.
Several years pass, the daughter is still alive and now lives a different life from before. During the years of her kidnapping she is now adapted and become used to her life and dilemmas she has had to live. Living in a world almost alien to her. She learns the tragerties and mystery of her previous family.
During the end of the film, she returns home which is turned into drug dens and the streets are paved with papers and debris. She finds her old home, and nothing more.
