film synopsis

My original ideas for the opening of the film was to have it set in the 1920s. There would have been a man tied to a box and a young woman, about 19.20 years old. She would have been wearing a mask and carried a knife. They would have spoken before she killed him.
However, I was not able to do this as it would have caused continuity problems in terms of location and costume.

My second idea was to begin with a young, 17/18 years old, wearing a sophisticated black dress and playing the piano. this would create a juxtaposition to the articles that would have different headlines about murders which are connected.
However, I am unable to film in the location before the deadline.

The idea I am going with is to start with the newspaper articles, while a soft piano piece is playing. It will then cut to the arms of a young woman, putting on a pair of rubber gloves and then hovering her left hand over a set of kitchen knives. She will choose the biggest knife and take it to her left. The audience will then see what will be a single blood spatter, over the rest of the knives.
