Thriller Treatment

The film opens on a shot of man 1 at a spice stall; you would hear street noise general sounds, diegetic. He talks to the man and buys a brown package (drugs) then it cuts to a clip of a girl walking over the bridge with a brown package in her hands, not really knowing where she is going. The shot then changes and you see man 1 getting out of a taxi. Then he walks towards and into the train station. On the side of the building you can see man 2 waiting and leaning on the wall. Inside the train station you see the girl sitting at one of the round benches. Man 1 is then seen walking into the train station and looking at the timetables. Man 2 is seen in the distance but not focused on. Close up of the girl then you she stands up and walks straight into man 1 on purpose and she and him both drop the brown packages. She quickly picks his up pretending it is hers and walks away swiftly. He stands up and walks over to the toilets. You see a close up of the packet and he opens it to double check the package inside but man 1’s phone rings and stops him. Then a shot of the girl outside walking quickly to a taxi then man 2 is seen and the girl bumped into his shoulder and a slow motion shot is shown of their eyes looking at each other. A worried look is shown on man 1’s face and he hangs up only to have the phone ring again and he just looks at it and close up of the phone. Then man 2 appears next to man 1 and says ‘you should really answer your phone when I call’. The package is then exchanged and man 2 checks it. They then find that the package contains photos of the girl and not the drugs. Finally you see them both look up and look at the exit.
The sub-genre is tricky to define; it is a journey across the country with the characters in a sort of chase to retrieve stolen drugs. So it isn’t a detective/thriller but it won’t be as fast pace as a thriller suspense, although it is probably closer to being a thriller suspense.
