Synopsis

       Diamant Synopsis

• Director- Jordan Cunningham 
• Femme Fatale-
• Detective- Thomas Hendry  
• Victim- Jordan Twiggs

Plot

A woman wants revenge on her former husband, and so she claims that he stole her jewellery from her apartment, which is worth millions of pounds. The femme fatale then goes to the detective explaining her story blaming it on her former husband. The detective claims that he will try and put a case together for her. The plot then is left on a cliff hanger  to whether the woman gets found out for blaming it on the man or whether the man gets punished and arrested for his actions and the woman wins.

Location

Birmingham - with establishing shots at the start to set the scene and let the audience know where the film is taking place. We can do this by showing some iconic buildings in the city centre of Birmingham for example the Bull Ring. We have chosen this location for the film as there are many unique features for the film to take place.

Characters

In the film we have three main characters that are in it, like any other normal film noir we will have three main characters and they are: Femme Fatale, Detective, Victim. We are using these sorts of characters to create a hook for the people watching the film. When using these characters it shows the audience that it is a traditional film noir as most of the film noirs that were made used these types of characters.
