My Noir Synopsis

Simon; A drug dealer trying to get out of illegal drug dealing is forced to shoot a dealer that has failed to pay from a previous shipment of drugs. The police enter the house as Simon escapes out of the back. The police were tipped off that that house had a dealer occupying and dealing from it. The detective knows the dead dealer well (Joey). Then Simon comes on to narrate that all of this could have been prevented and that it was not his fault that he was dealing. Its just the chain of command. And a the film starts with a flash back to him being ‘normal’(not a dealer, just driving around doing normal teenager stuff) it explains what happened two weeks ago..., then one week ago then that day. After the flashback has told it story the film will continue and the audience will be left with a scene were nobody has won. In the flash back he tells the back-story of Tasha who is a beautiful blonde
The film starts with a establishing shot of a housing area with a car in the distance. Before it gets to close there is some off action shots and someone gets out of the car and walks along the main road path and up to the front door of a house and knocks (very assertively). A drugged up man answers and lets him in. a confrontation is started and Simon is forced to kill the dealer. Just as he is exiting the rear of the house the police raid the house from the front. The inspector see him fleeing through the fields after he finds the dead body.
Location: Run-down house that looks like a drug den. And is really untidy and falling apart. Set in a typical run-down council housing estate. This will give the effect to the viewer that people are stuck in their way of life; there social class forces them to deal drugs and no one ever gets out.
Docks – again with the run-down housing estate i would like the docks to feel really cold and grey. The feeling that no one down by the docks is happy with their pay or how they are being treated. I would ideally like their to be run-down abandoned warehouses, so that there are lots of ways to escape and hide.
