BREIF ON ARE STORY

The final project for our film will mostly revolve around the romantic film genre. as we will be
incorporating codes and conventions, as well as a romance plot line about two girls falling in love
over a summer vacation. It will follow the story of a young boy who attends a party with his peers
and encounters a girl who has recently returned from Thailand to England. It then shows the two
characters meeting sweet and enjoying a reckless fun time together while getting along well, so that
the two are in love During the montages, the girl breaks the bad news to the man that she must
return to Thailand. The guy must understand that she is leaving and get on with his life, hoping that
they will reunite in the future. Then he sees a picture on social media of her posing with another
man, which makes him feel cheated. He attends a party/get-together with his friends that night. He
becomes inebriated and intoxicated, causing a traffic accident as a result of his carelessness and
recklessness. He was left in the dark about whether he was sick, as well as with a colostomy bag. He
feels betrayed and embarrassed to see her as she returns from Thailand, but they meet because she
agrees and reveals that she does not care about his injury and that the picture was taken outside of
the contest.
