This is the film idea which I original come up with, I developed this plot further in order to create a plot for our film trailer which combined mine and my partners plots together.
Levels (Plot Synopsis)
Set in the future (around 2025) a rare skin disease is spreading around the UK. No cure has been formed to stop the disease, which is killing thousands.With the majority of UK chemists ans scientists becoming infected after getting too close to people who carry the disease (trying to study their systems) the Government have decided to take action. They look to the population which has been least effected by the spread of this disease, teenagers. The government look at records gathered by schools and round up the teens which are most intelligent in order to test them so that they can decided which of the teenagers will be the best to help find a cure to the rapidly spreading disease. Before allowing any of these individuals into the research group they need to test their intelligence to ensure they are capable of finding a cure to this disease. In order to keep track of their testing the government has decided to test 5 teens at one time, the teens which finish all the testing effectively are the ones which go on to join the research group.
The story follows 5 teenagers as they are taken into a 3 story building. The teens are told that they are now part of a government experiment, and that they will take part in 3 challenges which will test their intelligence as well as their capability to find a cure. Those who complete a challenge successfully will move onto the next challenge, if a task is not completed the teen is eliminated from the challenge.
The 5 teens; Jake, Cathy, Will, Sophie and Rob begin their first challenge. Once the challenge has ended two of the teens, Jake and Rob have not completed the challenge successfully, they are then eliminated as the other three move on to the next challenge. One the second level each of the teens are concerned that they will be the next to be eliminated, regardless they carry on with the second challenge. This time Sophie is unsuccessful, so is eliminated from the experiment. On the way to the next challenge Will and Cathy hear a scream from the room they were just in. The pair exchange a concerned look and continue onto the next level.
At the next level the teens are told that only one of them can become a part of the research team. When the teens are in the final room they are faced with a syringe which contains the disease. The teens are told that one of them has to be injected with the disease whilst the other makes a cure. However, once the teen has been injected with the disease they will only have five minutes to be saved. The teens look at each other and neither seem to be willing to inject themselves with the disease. Will then breaks out into a smile and whispers "I trust you" to Cathy and injects himself with the disease. Will falls to the floor, Cathy rushes to his aid then comes to terms with the fact that the only way she can save Will now is if she comes up with a cure. Cathy rushes over to the chemicals which have been laid out and labeled and begins to mix then.
After about four minutes Cathy is struggling to come up with a cure. she adds one final chemical and decided to give it to Will before his time is up. Cathy returns to will and can see that his skin has broken out into a rash, he is struggling for breath. She gives him the 'antidote' she has made and suddenly Will's air ways clear and he is breath easily. Before Cathy can say anything to Will, two men enter the room and take Cathy away. Cathy is then airlifted to a Government building where the research group for the disease is based. Cathy is the first teen to become a part of the team and is the first person to make a real breakthrough with the cure for the disease. However, Cathy never did find out what happened to her friends, including Will. This leaves Cathy worried that she may be disposable to the Government, and may not be as safe as what the Government made out.
