This film pitch proposes a mystery thriller set in the countryside in the 1940s-1950s. It would target an audience that is 30+, educated, traditional, and interested in pre-21st century culture. The film would follow a group of four teenage girls - Emily, Sophie, Kaite, and Alex - as Emily and then Kaite go missing in the woods near their homes.
