Short Film Idea 2 Development
With the idea of a soldier suffering from PTSD, I hope to get across his pain and mental state. I would take influence from the opening sequence of Apocalypse Now (COPPOLA, 1979). Having the idea of him sitting at the dinner table and having sudden flashbacks to the horrors that have haunted him. With this, some surrealist and post-modern elements can be used in his mind, constant shifts between his mind and reality and how they have both affected him.
This idea sounds a bit over complicated. How are you going to show the flashback's? it could be done with sound mind you? Either way, the idea needs a bit more development. What is the character's story arc? How would it end?
