Larry Ridlen’s Target Market
What I learned doing this assignment is…
As I was going through it, and rereading the assignment again I realized I may have been too specific in the sense of “movies like mine.” I was largely looking for plots centered around alternate realities. I think next time, I’d be more general… sci-fi.

Title: OVER THE EDGE
Written by Joan Dougherty
Genre: Drama / Fantasy
What lengths will someone go to keep a secret safe?
Tiago’s so desperate that he arrests a visiting storyteller, once a childhood friend, to keep her silent.
And once Sofia’s locked inside, Tiago thinks he’s finally safe. How wrong could he be?
She uses her wits as a storyteller to wrest control away from him and brings into her cell characters from a tale told at the opening. They wreak havoc on his life and his ability to suppress the truth.
How can he survive?
Forced to return to the past and the place where his secret began, he tells his story of childhood trauma and his failure to protect his friend. Shattered but relieved, he’s then ready to go over the edge into the heart of the human story to be renewed.
If you like the concept, I’d be happy to send you the script.
Sincerely,
Joan Dougherty
