Film Synospis

Alexander is a deplorable self- centred business man, who seems to have no care or respect for anybody he doesn’t seem to be on his level of the status quo. On his daily commute, Alexander is in his own world as he sits reading his newspaper, isolating himself from the rest of society. Yet, it took one fatal day for his bubble to be burst and ultimately shake up what we know as the class system and ultimately leave him in a position where he needs help from the same people he shunned. Will ‘such’ people turn the cheek? Or do the morally right thing and help him?

As you can see the main issue this film entails is the idea of class and community. With regards to our short film, we in a sense will attempt to cover all aspects of the class system; ranging from the underclass to the more affluent upper middle class, and how there lives surprisingly intertwine, into a shocking and twisted end. What's more, we also delve in the issue of community or lack of community, which again is very central. It is for this reason, that we can even liken the film in some respects to fairytales such as Robin Hood, but giving it a contemporary revamp, this in turn leads to us editing in a unique and more complex way.
