Pitch Part 2

Basic Story

• Begins with character receiving her first plant.
• When she puts the plant down as a child, the frame will fade to the same pot of the grown plant and will shift to reveal that the character is clearly grown as well. The house will be overgrown with plants.
• There will then be a short compilation of shots of the character in her home interacting with her plants that seem to be alive. They will be eating together and watching television in order to present their bond as a family.
• Following the establishment of the family, the character will be at the checkout counter adding to the family and hesitantly handing over money to the cashier, left with an empty wallet. This will be a very limited movement shot just to establish part of the story. The tones begin to change to feel a bit more somber.
• When she returns home, she will be back at the table and opens a bill to pay it, and becomes discouraged. The surrounding plants will comfort her and cover the bill and crumple it.
• The next shot will show a foreclosure notice on the front of the house. Many empty planters will be hanging and sitting around the entrance to the house, and it will look desolate. 
• It will pull out to an over the shoulder of the character looking at her house and when the shot changes, the character will be across the street in an open area of grass surrounded by her plants. She will sit down among them.  This shot will fade into 2 consecutive stills that show the passage of time until she becomes rooted to the ground as a plant surrounded by her family.

Theme/Intent: Woman chooses to live for her plants and not conform to a typical lifestyle. She is finally accepting herself and finding congruence between how she wanted to live, among her family, and how she ended up living.
